On Saturday 4th July we played a selection of West End hits as part of our annual Proms Concert in collaboration with the Pheonix Theatre and The Shed in Bordon. Everything from Harry Potter to The Sound of Music, Phantom of the Opera to Titanic and ended with the traditional Proms repertoire with audience participation.
The orchestra was led by David Budd and welcomed two soloists Louisa Hunter-Bradley (vocals) and Will Sharp (violin) who both offered a real touch of class to the proceedings.

We thank all the 'extras' who joined the orchestra in the day to support us create that real Proms feeling. Also to the teams at The Pheonix and The Shed who make it all possible and are great to work with.
The full concert included:
Eric Coates The Dam Busters March
Sherman & Sherman Mary Poppins: Selection
Nigel Hess Ladies in Lavender (violin solo)
Loewe Abr, J Whitley My Fair Lady: Selection
James Horner arr. J Mosse Titanic
Lloyd Webber arr. Custer Selections from Phantom of the Opera
Williams arr. Story Highlights from Harry Potter
Rodgers & Hammerstein
arr, Gardner The Sound of Music (vocal solos)
Elgar Nimrod from Enigma Variations
Wood Fantasia on British Sea Songs & Rule Brittannia (vocals)
Elgar Pomp and Circumstance Milatry March No. 1
Elgar (orch) God Save the King (vocals)
Trad arr. Gardner Auld Lang Syne (vocals)
We look forward to inviting everyone back next year to our annual Proms Concert and keep an eye out for date announcments for our Winter Concert in November and Spring Concert in April.
