Jubilee Concert June 2012, 30th June

2012 felt such a special year, and we all began to feel very patriotic with The London Olympics. And we felt that we really did need to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, along with the rest of the Nation.  We had a lovely programme of great British music that spanned the centuries and there really was something for everyone. We feel it was a very fitting tribute to Her Majesty !
