'The Thin Red Line' by H Piffard
"The pity of war, the pity war distilled," Wilfred Owen
The performance of this intense masterpiece marks the centenary of the end of World War One - one of the deadliest conflicts in history which saw more than 70 million military personnel in action and in which over nine million service personnel and seven million civilians died.
Join Guildford Choral, The Bach Choir, Guildford Cathedral Choristers and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Jonathan Willcocks to honour the fallen and to mark this most significant Remembrance Day – the ending of the ‘War to end all Wars’.
There will be a retiring collection in aid of The HALO Trust. Set up some 30 years ago in Kabul when Soviet Forces started their withdrawal from Afghanistan, HALO has become the world’s largest humanitarian mine clearance organisation.
