The Middle Wallop & Andover Military Wives Choir will take to the stage in the stunning surroundings of the Hayward Hall at the Army Flying Museum in Middle Wallop on Armistice Day – Tuesday 11th November.

The choir will be performing a very special Concert of Remembrance which is sure to evoke many memories and emotions for those attending.

Choir secretary Fliss Stuart said, “Acts of Remembrance are incredibly important and poignant to us as a choir. We are honoured to have made this concert an annual event at the Museum and very much enjoy putting together a special programme of songs and poems for this very special night.”

The programme will include songs specifically composed for the Military Wives Choirs, alongside a selection of some of the choirs best-loved songs including contemporary and traditional pieces and a number of special readings to commemorate Remembrance Day.

The Military Wives Choirs are a community of nearly 2000 women in over seventy choirs across the UK and internationally who celebrate a love of singing and the power of shared experiences. 2022 marked 10 years since the formation of the charity.

Chief Executive of the Army Flying Museum, Lucy Johnson added, “We are delighted to be hosting the Military Wives Choir again this November, with the Concert of Remembrance now being an annual event in the Museum calendar where our visitors can join us in an evening of reflection surrounded by our stunning exhibits telling the history of British Army aviation.”

Tickets are £14/£10 children.
