I can confirm that Hayley will be appearing at this event and I assume that she is one of the special guests from the world of film music mentioned above. She will be singing two songs with the RPO.

Tickets are available HERE. Prices range from £8.50 to £50.

Thanks Hayley, I knew that I could rely on you. I look forward to hearing you perform with Debbie Wiseman. I bought my tickets in good faith on 15th January.

Will this be the premiere performance of "Flood"?

Hello Roger and Drew!

I went to the Royal Albert Hall Box Office this morning and booked Stalls M, Row 5, Seat 102.

109 days to go! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

See you there,

Richard

Hi Richard,

I looked at the availablitlity of seats in the stalls but the best of them was about 13 rows back. I therefore deliberately opted for the panoramic view and booked one in the Circle. It is many years since I have been up there and I recall you get an excellent overall picture of the proceedings. As Hayley is only singing two songs, it wasn't quite so important to be near the front. I also thought I would be considerate and let someone else have it. Of course, had I known it would be you....

No doubt I will see you there somewhere!

Hello folks!

Here is some information from Music from the Movies: www.musicfromthemovies.com/article.asp?ID=847

Incidentally both Wiseman and Westenra will be attending this year’s FILMHARMONIC at the Royal Albert Hall on Friday June 1st. Debbie will conduct the RPO in a selection from her forthcoming film score Flood, for which Hayley provides vocals and sings the end title song. We’ll see you there, be sure to check back with MftM for full reports on both events.

I have posted a transcript of the complete article on the Different Voices thread.

Hello folks!

I've just looked at the Royal Albert Hall's website, and this concert looks as though it's going to be a sell-out. There are a few odd seats still available in the stalls, but they won't be there much longer, so here's the link for booking:-

tickets.royalalberthall.com/season/reserve.aspx?spid=6925&id=6965&src=t

I'll be in stalls block M, row 5, seat 102. Who else is going?

Two weeks to go!!! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

See you there,

Richard

I'm a fan of John Williams & Hans Zimmer's soundtracks so that should be a very exciting concert.
I hope all of you who are attending will have a smashing time!

Sorry to spoil your evening Dave but I have just booked Stalls G 1-10. Well at least you will have a big Hayley fan beside you.

I just realized it is already tomorrow.
Do you think you'll have the opportunity to see Hayley after the concert as she is only performing two songs?
I hope she *really* had her one week break. Enjoy the concert

[Richard]

Thanks Stephany!

I don't know if I'll meet Hayley tomorrow, but I'll tell you all about the show at the weekend. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Best Wishes,

Richard

Hi Richard

Just wanted to wish you, Dave, Gordon, Drew & Lothar and anyone else who goes to the Albert Hall a good time I'm sure we will hear if you managed to have a few words with Hayley and I very much look forward to reading your reports over the weekend.

If you get the chance, perhaps you could mention to Hayley that some of us are very much looking forward to seeing her again at Cardiff on Monday evening i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Have a great time.

Best wishes
Mark

Hi all,

Have a great time if you're going to see this musical celebration. I absolutely LOVE the Star Wars movie soundtracks. No doubt Hayley's performances will cause a flood of applause!

Enjoy, my friends!

Hi Stephany. I had not realised she was only singing two songs. However, I like the theme and with unknown engineering chaos possibly on the line I shan't hang around afterwards. After all I shall be in Cardiff on Monday! I'm rather inclined to think that with such a small contribution she would simply arrive, do her bit and then go home. If she's free early I wouldn't seek her out--that is her preparation time' and she doesn't like talking beforehand.

Hopefully she will have time in Cardiff, probably staying over night rather than rushing back to London by car, although she might do that as it is a short programme with an early start. It will be a small audience but presumably a very FANtastic audience so in fact she may b quite crowded.

I will have my two posters from Borders in the US`with me in case she isn't too rushed to sign them but if not I'll grab another opportunity later in the year--Grassington or Llangollen.
