The musical programme will include songs composed explicitly for the Military Wives Choirs that feature on their album Remember, alongside a selection of some of the choir's best-loved songs including contemporary and musical theatre pieces. Guests will also be able to view a special poppy sculpture at the museum created by students from Andover College. 

The Military Wives Choirs are a community of nearly 2,000 women in over seventy choirs across the UK and internationally. All of the members in the choir come together to effortless celebrate a love of singing and the power of shared experiences. This year, 2022 marks 10 years since the formation of the charity so it makes it even more special as they take to the stage once again.

Chief executive of the Army Flying Museum Lucy Johnson added: “It is so exciting to have a full programme of events at the Museum once again.  We are delighted to be hosting the Military Wives Choir this November and hope to make the Concert of Remembrance an annual event where our visitors can join us in an evening of reflection surrounded by the history of Army Aviation”
