Dear Friends

The coronation of Charles III and his wife Camilla, as king and queen of the United Kingdom and the other Commonwealth realms, will take place on Saturday 6th May.  A very special event is taking place that evening at The Royal Albert Hall in London - The Coronation Prom – and we will be live-streaming this (using our superfast B4RN broadband connection) to St James Church, Burton.  We warmly invite you to join us.

The Coronation Prom is organised by All Souls Music who for many years have been behind the outstanding All Souls Orchestra and the annual Prom Praise events in the Royal Albert Hall.  You can find out more here: www.allsoulsmusic.org

The 120-piece All Souls Orchestra conducted by Michael Andrews and a special Coronation Prom Choir of 100s will lead the evening which will include:

  • William Walton’s ‘Orb and Sceptre’
  •  Elgar’s ‘Pomp and Circumstance March No.1’
  •  Handel’s ‘Zadok the Priest’
  •  John Williams’ ‘The Throne Room and End Title’ from Star Wars

and will feature special guests:

  • The Kingdom Choir – outstanding British gospel choir led by Karen Gibson
  • Jan Mulder – internationally admired pianist and composer
  • Joanne Lunn – renowned Soprano
  • Brian Doerksen – Canadian singer and songwriter

Rico Tice, the man behind ‘Christianity Explored’ and ‘Hope Explored’, will be speaking about why Jesus is the King of King Charles, the King of all Kings, and the perfect King who we all need.  Rico is well known for his many years of clear, engaging and thought-provoking explanations of Christian faith to those who are unsure whether the faith of our grandparents has any relevance to us today.

This is an evening not to be missed – do come and join us.

Sincerely

Graham Burrows
