    We'll meet again for VE day 75 concert with Katherine Jenkins

    6:00 pm

     

    Mezzo Soprano Katherine Jenkins OBE will perform in an empty Royal Albert Hall in a special half-hour concert that will be streamed to audiences for free via YouTube.

    Katherine will sing wartime favourites including The White Cliffs of Dover and We’ll Meet Again; the latter performed as a virtual duet with Dame Vera Lynn.

    This concert will be broadcast at 6pm BST on Friday 8 May: https://www.royalalberthall.com/tickets/events/2020/royal-albert-home-well-meet-again-for-ve-day-75-with-katherine-jenkins-obe/

    This concert will give the nation a moment to pay tribute to the fallen men and women of the Second World War and salute the country’s VE Day Veterans, many of whom are experiencing uncertainty and isolation. It is also our opportunity to thank the Armed Forces who, alongside the NHS and many others, are coming together to serve the country.
