IN CONCERT WITH THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CONDUCTED BY PAUL MANN (also cited as IN CONCERT WITH THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA) is a live album and DVD by the English hard rock band Deep Purple, recorded on 25–26 September 1999 at the Royal Albert Hall in London with the London Symphony Orchestra, and released on 8 February 2000 on Eagle Records. The album was a project started in 1999 by keyboardist Jon Lord, who sought to recreate the band's innovative 1969 album, Concerto For Group And Orchestra, of which the original score was lost. With the help of Marco De Goeij, a fan who was also a musicologist and composer, the two painstakingly recreated the lost score, and Jon Lord elected to have the band perform it once more at the Royal Albert Hall, but this time with the London Symphony Orchestra with Paul Mann as conductor. The concert also featured songs from each member's solo careers, as well as a short Deep Purple set, and guest musicians such as Ronnie James Dio, The Steve Morse Band, and Sam Brown.

Deep Purple's IN CONCERT WITH THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA will please the band's longtime fans. Not only are they still rockin', but Deep Purple pulls off a feet that destroys most bands. Hard rock acts like Guns N' Roses and Aerosmith have recorded with full orchestras to mixed results. At worst, such bands sound preposterous; at best, the multi-instrumental arrangement matches the sweeping grandeur of rock & roll -- as it does here. It makes sense for Deep Purple to team up with the London Symphony Orchestra and see what would happen. After all, this is the band whose very first record included a track called Concerto For Group And Orchestra. That track, incidentally, was recomposed for the band's concert at the Royal Albert Hall. Standout tracks include "Wait A While" and "Love Is All" but, of course, every Deep Purple fan will want to know how "Smoke On The Water" comes off. Of all the songs performed that night in 1999, one imagines that the symphony was most unimpressed by this most-loved Deep Purple heavy metal anthem. It does bring down the house, however, with thousands of headbangers making the hall sound like Mozart had lived in the rock era. The high-energy concert, captured on DVD and released in 1999, is one of the best of its kind. However, few fans of classical music will be impressed. And if you don't already like Deep Purple, this is not the best introduction to their music. But fans who get excited to learn that Deep Purple is joined on stage by Ronnie James Dio, Sam Brown, and The Steve Morse Band will enjoy this musical experiment. Certainly adding the lush symphonic sounds in the background of these melodic hard rockers enriches the originals in interesting ways. A fun concert that is more fun to watch than to simply listen.
