May 2, 2010 – Royal Albert Hall, London

Since 1999, The Night of 1000 Voices has delighted capacity audiences at the Royal Albert Hall. On Spring Bank Holiday Sunday May 2, 2010, once again thrill to the sight and sound of the huge 1000 Voices Massed Choir from around the British Isles, Stephen Disley playing the magnificent organ of the Royal Albert Hall and The City of London Philharmonic who will, as always, accompany some very special stars from London and New York in a musical night to remember.

In 2010, The Night of 1000 Voices will be celebrating its 10th birthday and the 50th Anniversary of Leukaemia Research. Leukaemia Research is dedicated to saving lives through leading UK research into better treatments and cures for leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma. The charity receives no government funding and relies entirely on people coming together to fundraise.

Featured in this year’s celebration of the best of musical theatre will be some of the most requested favourites including songs from Wicked, Evita, The Lion King, West Side Story, Jesus Christ Superstar, Titanic, Rent, Kiss Of The Spiderwoman, Brigadoon, Carousel, Porgy And Bess and We Will Rock You. These are just some of the great shows which will be given The Night of 1000 Voices treatment, together with a sprinkling of some which may be not quite so well known.

The West End’s distinguished maestro, David Firman, will once again supervise the massed musical forces and director Hugh Wooldridge says “This evening is a must for all who love musicals. Come along and hear the best performers in the world performing some of the greatest songs. Come and join in the fun; come and raise funds for a most splendid charity whilst raising the roof of the Royal Albert Hall.”
