We welcomed the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO) to the Sports & Community Centre for a ‘Cuppa Concert’ afternoon of music, dancing, and instrument-playing!
We saw an amazing turnout for our afternoon concert with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO). Following the theme ‘Best of British’, attendees arrived donning flags, colourful outfits, and accessories, ready for plenty of music and dancing. Combinig a mix of classical and hit songs from British composers, CBSO took us on a journey from Scotland, to Wales, to Ireland, to England, and back again with their varied ensemble. With well-known classic songs such as Danny Boy, Sky Boat Song, Dambusters March, Palladio, and much more, as well as a Harp rendition of UB40’s Red Red Wine and Tom Jones’ Delilah, attendees enjoyed getting involved playing instruments and waving scarves around to the sound of the music.
The afternoon was enjoyed by people of all ages getting involved in singing, dancing, and playing along – instruments were handed out to all attendees to join in the fun with the Orchestra! Thank you to the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra for such an amazing afternoon at the Sports and Community Centre – keep your eyes peeled for the next installment!
