Great British Composers: War & Remembrance

Human conflict and the subsequent making of peace has inspired composers across the centuries. SSAFA presents a night of spectacular music from William Walton, Benjamin Britten, Edward Elgar, Eric Coates, Ron Goodwin and more. The evening will reflect on key anniversaries including the Battle of Britain, D-Day and VE Day – somewhat missed over the past 18 months but never forgotten. Sophie Raworth will explore how conflict and remembrance have influenced some of the most famous pieces of classical music from the last 100 years – and hear about her own family link with Edward Elgar. Join us for music inspired by the moments that have created our history
