Charity Symphony Orchestra
This year we celebrate 20 years of fantastic fundraising through musical events. Over the years we have performed across the South, in London and even Milan. Our players come from a diverse range of backgrounds, many in music, but equally with careers outside the music industry. Everyone gives their time freely in order to maximise donations to charity which, over the past 20 years amount to over £30,000 to local and national organisations.
We are delighted to be taking part in the Bishop’s Waltham Festival.

Land of Hope and Glory
Mother of the Free
How shall we extol thee
Who are born of thee?
Wider still, and wider
Shall thy bounds be set;
God, who made thee mighty
Make thee mightier yet!
Fantasia on British Sea Songs
Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves!
Britons never, never, never will be slaves
Jerusalem
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountain green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear!
O clouds, unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land.
Thank you to all our players, Darren and his team for organising this amazing Festival you the audience for supporting this concert today

MEON VALLEY HEART START
Meon Valley Heart Start
Since 2001 our objective is to help save lives by training people in emergency life saving (ELS). These skills are the actions needed to keep someone alive and safe until professional help arrives. They are skills that anyone can learn.
Every two minutes one person in the UK has a heart attack, and in 30% of cases the casualty dies before he or she reaches hospital, due to cardiac arrest. Other causes of cardiac arrest include electrocution and drug overdose.
Recovery from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is more likely if each link in what is known as the ‘chain of survival’ is strong.
