The Royal Air Force in Concert 2008

Join us for an irresistible musical journey through the past, present and future of the Royal Air Force.

Be entertained by the critically-acclaimed musicians of the Royal Air Force who will treat you to a diverse mix of light classics, jazz, big band and music from the shows. This glorious celebration, to mark the 90th Anniversary of the Royal Air Force, is guaranteed to evoke true 1940's nostalgia and uplift all ages.

Joining the tour again this year will be the legendary RAF Squadronaires, who will be entertaining audiences with their renditions of Malaguena, String of Pearls, Carioca and more. We are also delighted to welcome the return of a highlight from previous years; The Salon Orchestra of the Central Band of the Royal Air Force. They are a perfect accompaniment to this year’s tour and we are sure you’ll enjoy their intimate performance.

This stirring programme offers a triumphant finale, reminiscent of the Last Night of the Proms, making it an ideal gift or outing for the whole family.

Musical highlights include:
- Crown Imperial (Walton)
- A Bridge Too Far (Goodwin)
- Summertime (Gershwin)
- Jerusalem (Parry)
