Programme Note
Join Nailsea Concert Orchestra for their commemorative concert on Saturday 24th November at St Francis Church, Nailsea to mark 100 years since the end of the First World War. The orchestra will be performing Elgar’s iconic Enigma Variations, Beethoven’s Egmont Overture and Butterworth’s idyllic ‘The Banks of Green Willow’, the anthem for all ‘Unknown Soldiers’. All the pieces pay homage to the great sacrifices made by so many in the ‘war to end all wars’. The concert starts at 7.30pm and tickets (£12/£10/£2.50) are available in advance from Nailsea Music Shop or on the door. This concert is in support of The Royal British Legion. The orchestra look foward to seeing you there.
