 It was used to record various film soundtracks, including "The Lord of the Rings", "The Sound of Music", and "Sleepy Hollow"; and among classical recordings, Julian Lloyd Webber's performance of Elgar's Cello Concerto, conducted by Yehudi Menuhin.It is regularly used to host concerts by the BBC Concert Orchestra, including "Friday Night is Music Night", and has housed performances by performers including The Who, Robbie Williams, and Oasis.The acoustics were analysed by an acoustics company in 2009, who reported that the size and "shoebox" shape of Watford Colosseum; the flat floor and the materials used in construction; allow for pleasant reverberation and good sound quality and clarity, such as to make it among the best in Europe.
