Echoes of ‘We’ll Meet Again’ rang around the Tank Museum as Dorset schoolchildren gave their annual charity concert.
Students from Knighton House School performed surrounded by tanks on the 70th anniversary of D-Day. Funds raised by the evening will be donated to two military charities with close links to the school: Combat Stress and Help for Heroes.
The audience were treated to guest performances by English National Opera tenor John Hudson, Dorset Opera soprano Charlotte Hewett and Annemarie Lees, soprano and former Director of Music at Knighton House, who performed alongside the school’s Chapel Choir.
Sarah Wicks, who takes over as Head at Knighton House School from September, said: “It has to be one of the most dramatic settings we’ve ever performed at.
“The whole evening went so well and our girls were thrilled to perform alongside such eminent professionals. “We are immensely proud to support these two charities and the fantastic work they do in the military.”
