As Frost Magazine’s Music Critic Michael Rowan says: just my cup of tea.

Celebrating 100 years of filming at the Old Royal Naval College, (such a stunning venue) an evening of unforgettable film music in partnership with Docklands Sinfonia, will be hosted in the stunning Chapel of St Peter & St Paul. The concert, lasting 75 minutes – the bliss – will feature music from Hollywood’s greatest movies, some of which were filmed at the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
You will be treated to music by composers such as John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Ennio Morricone, Ludwig Göransson, and Howard Shore, and of course, because what evening would be complete without – roll of drums – music from Les Misérables, Pirates of the Caribbean, to name just a taste of the treats on offer. (I do hope Bring Him Home is included). This will be a rare and excellent evening filled with unforgettable film music in this iconic venue, performed by Docklands Sinfonia, to celebrate many many wonderful years of filming at the Old Royal Naval College.

Docklands Sinfonia is a major cultural force in Docklands and beyond, a diverse, dynamic and versatile orchestra working with composers, producers and promoters across film, rock, pop and classical music. Since its formation in 2009 Docklands Sinfonia has enjoyed great success with performances for Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace and with Grammy-Award winner Imogen Heap at the Royal Albert Hall.
The evening sounds too tempting to be ingnored. 24th May. Go, bask in the marvellous acoustics of the Chapel, and the beauty of the music. It will evoke memories, and provide new ones.
