The second half will be on a Last Night of the Proms theme, starting off with the ever popular Dambusters March by the orchestra, and finishing with Jerusalem, Rule Britannia, Land of Hope and Glory and Benjamin Britten’s arrangement of the National Anthem.
The choir are expecting a packed church for this patriotic celebration evening. The church will be decorated with bunting and there will be Union Jack flags for those attending!
