As 成人快手 Radio 3 celebrates the 80th anniversary of VE Day, join the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra and the Central Band of the Royal Air Force for this stirring, swinging salute to our greatest generation.

In May 1945 silence fell across Europe 鈥� and for a few unforgettable days, a continent danced in the streets. Eighty years on, as we remember that world-changing moment, the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra joins forces with the Central Band of the Royal Air Force for a very special Friday Night is Music Night. As always, it鈥檚 an evening packed with tunes you know and love. Richard Balcombe conducts movie melodies guaranteed to conjure memories 鈥� including 633 Squadron. There鈥檒l be pageantry, marches and a spectacular showpiece that brings together the full symphonic forces of the 成人快手 CO with the musical aces of the RAF.

And of course, we鈥檒l be kicking up our heels and dancing, as the Central Band of the Royal Air Force celebrates the songs that saw a nation through, including A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square and I鈥檒l be Seeing You 鈥� all with that irresistible swing.
