Join the Band of the Mercian Regiment, with support from the Choir, The Oakville Singers, and the Cathedral Organist coupled with Community Singing of WW2 favourites in the Nave of the Cathedral, to mark the beginning of a week of activities in the City and County to celebrate VEDay80. The Concert will raise funds for The Worcestershire Soldier at the Commandery Appeal. This move by the Museums of the Mercian Regiment (Worcestershire) and The Worcestershire Yeomanry Museum from their current home in the City Museum and Art Gallery to The Commandery, is to take place in late 2027 / early 2028. The Museums have been successful in obtaining National Heritage Lottery Funding to develop the idea and with this Grant comes the need to raise funds; we are required to raise £100,000 as match funding. We do hope you will be able to join us in a night of wonderful military music, choral singing and nostalgia with the knowledge that monies raised will go directly to our appeal. In anticipation of your help, the Museums thank you and very much hope to see you there.

ESO Gala Concert Saturday 31 May 7.30pm Written between the two Wars, Ireland’s These Things Shall be is a powerful expression of humanistic and enlightenment values, a faith in the agency of individuals and a pacifist worldview. Ian Venables’ song cycle explores themes of love and sexuality through the poetry of the 19th and early 20th centuries. “Although the cycle’s underlying narrative portrays the love of man for man, I wanted to end the work with a celebration of the universality of love and especially the deep love that is found in a long-lasting relationship. This is a love that transcends sexual categories and is at the heart of a humane world where gay people no longer need to hide in ‘the shadows.’ Elgar’s Second Symphony is one of his most powerful and personal works, a musical portrait of a man and a civilisation standing at a turning point in history.
