Vera Lynn 100 CD

-

£16.00 incl P&P code WVL01

A true national icon, Dame Vera Lynn reached her 100th birthday on the 20th March 2017. To celebrate this milestone, a newly recorded album, “Vera Lynn 100”, features Dame Vera Lynn’s utterly distinctiv­e original vocals set to completely new, re-orchestrat­ed versions of her most beloved songs. This has allowed full orchestral accompanim­ents to transform not only her most memorable and moraleboos­ting hits that sustained Britons through the wartime years, but has also unearthed some rare recordings such as her version of “Sailing” which has not been heard for 35 years.

The album also features several duet partners including Alfie Boe, Alexander Armstrong, Aled Jones and the RAF Squadronai­res.
