From Sweden with Love reader Warren Ringham of Q The Music has announced the date and venue for the band’s flagship show in 2026, the biggest to date. On Sunday November 1st, the UK based orchestra of 60+ musicians together with music maestro David Arnold will dedicate an entire programme to Arnold’s James Bond music at London Palladium. This has never been done before. Ever. Tickets will be on sale from next week so keep an eye out in their channels.

Becoming synonymous with the top Bond events around the world, in 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969), held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps. In 2017, they had the honour to provide the music at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios. Appearing in London’s West End multiple times they have sold out several of the most prestigious venues to huge critical acclaim.

Celebrating more than 20 years as the first original and pioneering Bond concert, Q The Music are known for their stirring emotional and adrenaline-fueled performances, mixed in with superb musicianship and flair. Many Bond fans around the world consider them as the best and finest performances of the iconic theme songs since the originals.

Focusing not only on theme songs, the show also pays homage to the complete canon covering chase music, incidental cues and suites from across the series. Some of the most notable praise has come from hugely influential Bond related stars.

Accolades from famous Q The Music attendees:


• Five-time Bond composer David Arnold: “They do a phenomenal job.”
• Former James Bond actor George Lazenby: “They did John Barry proud.”
• Actress Madeline Smith (Miss Caruso in Live and Let Die): “All the musicians in the band are incredible and play with such verve and expertise; I really cannot recommend this show highly enough.”
Sir Roger Moore’s Office: “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day.”
Steven Saltzman (son of legendary founding Bond producer Harry Saltzman): “You did my dad proud.”

Anders Frejdh, From Sweden with Love’s founder and George Lazenby’s manager, said: “Nobody does (or has done) it better than Q The Music when it comes to recreating the original sound of the extraordinary music featured in the James Bond films, a vital part in any cinematic adventure. I was totally blown away by the talent demonstrated by the band and its artists after hearing them live in concert. A truly unforgettable performance.”

Even The Times raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

This year’s show marks Q The Music’s biggest ever show. The biggest ever orchestra. The biggest ever venue.


With stunning singing, an informative compere, and a show full of iconic tunes performed to an unparalleled level of detail it really is a night of the highest quality guaranteed. As the only James Bond concert created by die-hard Bond fans, for Bond fans, by people who understand the music better than anyone else: you won’t want to miss it.
