Seaside Reflections - Memories and Dreams, An RNLI Benefit Concert

A varied programme, from nostalgic palm court music and lyrical saxophone to intimate piano reflections and soaring vocal lines, each piece has been chosen with care and affection. This is both a moment of remembrance and celebration — music that comforts, uplifts and connects us.
