Buckingham care home enjoys taste of the classics with its very own Proms
Residents and guests at a care home in Buckingham have been treated to a sparkling afternoon complete with classical music and nibbles.
Care UK’s Maids Moreton Hall, on Church Street, hosted its own Proms event, with the home transformed for residents to gather and enjoy a live classical performance from singer Harry Kersley.
Accompanied by glasses of champagne and classic British picnic nibbles, the audience soaked up the sounds, including Nessun dorma followed by a flag-waving, rousing rendition of Rule, Britannia!.
Resident Susan Bellegarde said: “We all loved the event. Harry’s voice was incredible and when he sang Nessun dorma in Italian, it brought tears to our eyes.”
Andrea Bullen, Customer Relations Manager at Maids Moreton Hall, said: “We're always looking for new ways to bring something special into residents' lives – and live music makes a real impact.
“The atmosphere during Harry’s performance was fantastic. It was a proper occasion and lovely to see residents enjoying the nostalgia brought on by the music.”
