WWII Commemoration Gala Concert - Marking the 65th Anniversary of the End of The War in Europe
The Royal Albert Hall
A spectacular line-up of Russian and British stars will come together for this celebratory gala concert, marking the end of the second World War in Europe…
A programme of popular classics and war time favourites will transport the audience back to that long-awaited spring of 1945 when peace returned at last, set against an atmospheric backdrop of specially-created pictures and images. Alongside all the nostalgia, there will be plenty of contemporary music to enjoy too - as a fusion of music and cultures come together on stage to pay tribute to the Great Victory.
As well as the star-studded line-up of UK acts, the programme will include performances from the world-renowned Alexandrov Red Army Military Ensemble, Mashina Vremeni with Andrei Makarevich and DDT with Yuri Shevchuk and Russia's very own Sinatra - Iosif Kobzon(я кончил).
