On 2nd
June 2022 choirs throughout the four nations of the United Kingdom and
the Commonwealth are being invited to join together in local
collaboration and sing the newly written Song for Her Majesty the
Queen’s Platinum Jubilee at 9.45 pm as beacons are lit in celebration of
this extraordinary moment.
The
song has now been released ("A life lived with grace” by Vincent Atueyi
from Nigeria (music) and lyrics by Lucy Kiely from Australia) and the
Guide to this event can be accessed on our website here:

Church
and cathedral choirs can download the musical score, parts and the
lyrics, and it is hoped that many will participate in this joyous event.
Now is the time to schedule your choir for this, and to contact other
choirs in your locality to see if joint choirs can be organised in every
locality.
