We were invited to perform at the Commonwealth Day Service which was broadcast live from Westminster Abbey by the BBC on March 11th 2019.
​Her Majesty the Queen was joined by senior members of the Royal Family to lead a service of celebration for Commonwealth Day with heads of state from all 53 member nations.
Our quintet, (violin, viola, cello, harp and flute) performed music pre ceremony and for the Flag Procession. We also accompanied the Commonwealth Youth Choir for their songs in another wonderful youth music collaboration.
​​Our cellist, Léonie Adams, was presented to The Queen and senior members of the Royal Family & Government at the end of the service at the request of The Palace.
The service was broadcast live on BBCOne, relayed live on the BBC World Service and streamed live on the BBC YouTube channel.
