Procol Harum and a Danish Orchestra Create an Unforgettable ‘A Whiter Shade of Pale’ Performance!
If you’ve ever heard “A Whiter Shade of Pale” by Procol Harum, you know how powerful the song is. But imagine hearing it with a full orchestra— It would be like hearing the song in a whole new way. Well, that happened in 2006 at ‘Ledreborg’ Castle in Denmark. The Danish National Concert Orchestra joined Procol Harum, and the result was nothing short of breathtaking. The orchestra’s beautiful intro builds the excitement, and when Gary Brooker starts singing, it’s as if the song is brand new again.
What’s even more impressive is that Brooker’s voice still sounds just as good as it did back in 1967 when the song was first released. In fact, the performance became such a hit that it quickly racked up millions of views on YouTube—99 million, to be exact!
