Classic FM Live is one of the biggest nights in the classical music calendar. This autumn sees the 100th anniversary of the end of World War One. This highly significant moment in our nation's history will be marked in a multitude of ways ? and at Classic FM Live, we will host the world premiere performance of a beautiful, moving, and unforgettable new piece: The Great War Symphony. Classic FM Live will be held in aid of SSAFA, the armed forces charity supporting military families. In what promises to be an unforgettable evening, Classic FM presenters John Suchet and Margherita Taylor will also introduce a range of other orchestral and choral music, including Parry's I Was Glad, Elgar's Nimrod, and favourites by Holst and Vaughan Williams.
