French Day Celebration
Our French National Day soirée is now just over a week away.
On the 14th of July the Daylesford Townhall will take on a Parisian ambience. The French National Day event will celebrate all things French, and an important feature of the evening will be the music. This will transport us through Europe on a grand musical tour. As well as the performances from the Brass Band, some of the musical highlights of the evening include wonderful soloists. We will immediately be taken to Paris with Val Goodwin singing “Chanson d’amour”, and by the Band’s musical director, Mark Lyall with “Softly Awakes my Heart”. Christine Douglas will fly us to Italy with the beautiful aria “O mio babbino caro”. The music will take us far as the Gates of Kyiv then bring us back to France with “Evidemment” from Eurovision 23, and of course, the Can Can.
Come along at 5pm for a 5.30 start. BYO food, drinks, cutlery and glasses. Make up a table or join one and make new friends.
