Music and Munch for November has become, by tradition, more than just a recital and
this year is no exception. Audience members will be invited into a reflective and thoughtful mood as poetry, music
and song, weave together to explore and express the experiences of war, in anticipation of Remembrance Day. This
years’ event on November 6th offers the opportunity to join together in the singing of popular wartime songs and
to hear words old and new, which convey the deep emotion we share in times of conflict and loss.
Readers have been drawn from the Anglican Parish as well as the island community and include two young guests
from the Gulf Islands Secondary School, who will be reading their own poetry.
Thoughtfully chosen, the music for the organ, interwoven through the three part programme, will enhance and
support the themes of both world wars and today's conflicts. Led by favourite skilled musical contributors to
Music and Munch, the day’s events promise to continue the tradition of a very moving observance of Remembrance
Day. |
