The Music of James Bond (early show)

XPERIENCE LIVE presents The Music of James Bond – performed in a stunning setting at Selby Abbey. Friday 31st July 2026 | Doors: 5:30pm | Show: 6:15pm–7:30pm | Last entry: 6:00pm Friday 31st July 2026 | Doors: 8:00pm | Show: 8:30pm–9:45pm | Last entry: 8:15pm The Music of James Bond From the moment the first chord strikes, audiences are transported into the mysterious and thrilling world of James Bond. This incredible Chamber Orchestra brings the legendary music of James Bond to life in a way that is bold, elegant and utterly unforgettable. This is more than a concert – it is an orchestral tribute to one of cinema’s most iconic legacies. Across six decades, the music of Bond has been defined by extraordinary voices: Dame Shirley Bassey, whose soaring performances of “Goldfinger”, “Diamonds Are Forever” and “Moonraker” set the gold standard; Adele, whose Oscar-winning “Skyfall” became an instant classic; Sam Smith’s haunting “Writing’s On the Wall”; and Billie Eilish’s powerful and poignant “No Time To Die”. These songs – and the artists behind them – have given Bond its unmistakable sound. Performed by world-class musicians and vocalists, every note echoes the sophistication of the James Bond universe. The sound of sweeping strings and bold brass stirs images of high-speed car chases, exotic escapes and unforgettable encounters.
