Ahead of Celebration Day on 28th May 2023, Patrick was delighted to be asked to write a new song along with top songwriter AJ Brown.
Celebration Day is a national day that aims to remember and celebrate people who are no longer with us, and who have influenced and shaped us to be who we are today.
The Celebration Day song has been composed for everyone to enjoy with lyrics inspired by the heartfelt testimonials recorded by members of the public. The piece features the vocals of Alexander Armstrong, Laura Wright, Alex “AJ” Brown and hundreds of choristers from around the world. The song features international cellist Laura Peribañes Artero, violins and violas by Pete Whitfield and Organ by Michael Brown. Join Musical Director Ben England BEM for a special LIVE presentation of the song, and join in with the words on screen as we celebrate the lives of those we love through the gift of music.
Watch the world premiere of the audio live on YouTube at 6pm (UK) on Thursday May 25th https://youtube.com/live/QJQJ7oMPols
