Heather Gladstone Performs at ANZAC Tribute – New Zealandby Christine Johnstone |
Heather Gladstone QSM (picture left) will accompany and direct the St Albans Community Choir at their ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) tribute concert on April 18th, 2021 at 5pm in association with The New Brighton Silver Band. Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand that broadly commemorates all Australians and New Zealanders "who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations" and "the contribution and suffering of all those who have served". The concert, entitled “Marching Away with a Song in Their Hearts” will take place at St Paul’s Church in Christchurch and entry is by donation. Their program will include music people would have danced to at that time, such as: Alexanders Rag time Band, Dont sit under the apple tree, Hang out your washing on the Siegfried Line, Kiss me Good night, Suvla Bay (a ballad that originates from the first world war), Lili Marlene, and several Vera Lynn numbers that the choir will sing along with the Brass Band.
