Last Night of the Proms

Join us in St Nicholas’s Church, North Walsham on 5th July 2025 at 7.00 p.m. for the Last Night of the Proms.

The programme will include all the usual favourites plus Charles Villiers Stanford’s Songs of the Fleet and Arthur Sullivan’s Te Deum Laudamus.

Songs of the Fleet was composed in 1910 as a sequel to the Songs of the Sea and is a setting of poems by Henry Newbolt. 

The Boer War Te Deum was Sullivan’s last-completed major work.[2] The text is the ancient Christian hymn as translated in the Book of Common Prayer, showing Sullivan’s “personal Christian commitment” at the end of his life.[1] In addition, his use of his popular hymn tune, “St. Gertrude,” (Onward Christian Soldiers) throughout the Te Deum is the most prominent self-reference that Sullivan allowed himself in his career, underlining the very personal nature of this final work and his love of his church and country.

Light refreshments will be available.

 Tickets are £10 on the door, under-18s and carers free.
