This special event celebrating The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee is a celebration in music of this remarkable and unique anniversary. The programme includes music from around the United Kingdom used on royal occasions, written during The Queen’s Reign, and premiered at this concert.
We have been able to draw together singers from several local choirs, and combine with the vibrant, dynamic, and inspiring Orpheus Sinfonia, with wonderful soloists, all under the superb direction of conductor Oliver Gooch. Petroc Trelawny, radio and television presenter will guide us through the evening.
We do hope that you will be able to join us in the splendour of St George’s Chapel for Windsor’s musical tribute to Her Majesty.
Admission is via King Henry VIII Gate
