A Royal Serenade
Sunday, September 8, 2024, 1700 - 1800
Sunday 8th September 2024 will mark the second anniversary of the passing of Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Her late Majesty, the longest reigning Monarch in British History with dedicated service of over 70 years, was known also for her appreciation of great music.
St Paul's Walden Bury, Near Hitchin, Hertfordshire, said to be the birthplace of Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother is a small stately home, with spectacular gardens, where Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II spent much time as a child with other family members. Now the home of Sir Simon and Caroline Bowes-Lyon, the grounds are a fabulous setting for the performance of some of Britain's most talented young musicians from the Royal Academy of Music, who will deliver 'A Royal Serenade' of vocal and chamber music. Attendees are encouraged to arrive from 3pm, bring their own picnic, relax on the lawn or bring their own chair, prior to the one-hour concert at 5pm.
The event is also seeking to raise a donation to the St. Albans Cathedral Music Trust in support of its programme to provide young people within the St Albans Diocese an opportunity to perform at the next series of free-to-attend Lunchtime Concerts.
Dr. Lionel C. Wallace DL – Chair, said "The St Albans Cathedral Music Trust Short Documentary 'Chorus' screening in November 2024 will talk to the tremendous benefit of choral music to the development of our young people and communities. As the Trust approaches its 30th Anniversary, its vision is to remove financial barriers to getting people singing and performing together".
