As a disappointed customer of this concert last September, which was cancelled for safety reasons, I have just been sent advance booking information from the Albert Hall for the next Classic FM concert on Tuesday 29th April. Again, it features Hayley and here is some further info:
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Monday 10th Feb but I have a link for booking tickets NOW if anyone is interested. I believe that Hayley was only due to sing two songs last September and that may well be the case this time too.

PS As always be aware that Hayley's appearance in this concert has not yet been confirmed to us by Bandana but rest assured we will try and get such confirmation as soon as possible.

Hi everyone,
I'm pleased to say that Hayley's participation in this event is now confirmed by her management. However, I have no information yet about the extent of her involvement so like Martin, I assume that it will be similar to what was planned last year in the abandoned event - one or two songs.
Cheers, Dave

Thanks for the confirmation, Dave! I've added this event to the forum schedule, but I'll wait for the Royal Albert Hall's ticket link before I update our website and Facebook page. That should appear when the tickets go on sale tomorrow morning. Richard

Unfortunately inner London is now out of bounds to those who don't live there, thanks to the congestion charge.

Hi Libby, It's one of the auction prizes, mentioned towards the bottom of the page. The headline is perhaps slightly misleading though, by saying: Hayley Westenra in concert at The Royal Albert Hall when Hayley is just part of the Classic FM Live concert and we don't yet know for sure how many songs she will perform. Incidentally, Martin and I got a meet and greet for free, outside the Hall before the cancelled concert last year, accompanied by firemen of the London Fire Brigade. I bet this year's auction prize can't match that! Cheers, Dave

Well, whatever, the DVLT is worth supporting anyway.

Hayley will be singing, and only singing, "La Califfa" at this concert. She was also due to sing "Sleep On" but Paul Mealor was not available.

Would have been our 36th wedding anniversary. Would have been a nice way to celebrate, but with Hayley only singing one song, hardly worth the trip to London.
