Unimatrix Two

The British Broadcasting Corporation puts on yearly classical music concerts known as The Proms. This year, they’ve added a Doctor Who Prom to the lineup, and you can hear it online at the BBC iPlayer site until August 3rd.

The concerts are audio broadcasts presented by Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones), and include performances of soundtrack music from the new series as well as classical music that “you might find on the Doctor’s MP3 player”. There will also be a special short TV episode on the BBC website called “Music of the Spheres” which, if it’s like the other online trailers and specials, can technically only be watched from computers in Great Britain. (I’m quite sure that my fellow Whovian geeks are working on that as I type this.)

There’s a program online listing the included compositions. If you’re interested in orchestral music, enjoy!

EDIT: Aaaaand the online player just locked up on me. I am having a day of Internet servers crashing repeatedly. With luck, they’ll get it fixed.

EDIT 2: ‘Tis back. Clearly, the server couldn’t handle the Doctor spamming Moonfire.
