A Royal Celebration
You are cordially invited to a concert fit for a King, Queen…..Prince or Princess; the NPO’s Annual Family Prom.
Our musical journey will take us to the land of the Arabian Nights with music about the Young Prince and Princess from Scheherezade, we’ll travel to a Whole New World with Princess Jasmine from Aladdin, to a galaxy far, far away with Princess Leia from Star Wars, via gaming adventures with The Legend of Zelda, ending up in Sherwood Forest with Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
With music from The King and I, The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast there’s plenty for all the family to enjoy. You will even get the chance to sing along to Dancing Queen by ABBA.
Our country has seen many royal occasions over the years, most of them accompanied by music including Music for the Royal Fireworks and Crown Imperial, written for that most royal of occasions; a coronation.
Join us for a fabulous evening of majestic music.
