Royal Albert Home Performance on 8th May.
Katherine Jenkins delivers a historic set from an empty Royal Albert Hall to mark the 75th anniversary of VE Day.
Taking place at 6pm on 8th May, this concert will give the nation a moment to pay tribute to the fallen men and women of the Second World War and salute the country’s VE Day Veterans, many of whom are experiencing uncertainty and isolation. It is also our opportunity to thank the Armed Forces who, alongside the NHS and many others, are coming together to serve the country.
The Welsh singer will perform a 30-minute set of wartime classics, including The White Cliffs of Dover, and performing with Dame Vera Lynn for a virtual duet of We’ll Meet Again, the stirring hit which has been oft-quoted in the time of coronavirus.
