The Liverpool Songbook

RICHARD BALCOMBE conductor GRAHAM BICKLEY presenter/vocalist

From down on the Docks to here at the Hall, music is the lifeblood of Liverpool – so much so that we’re officially a UNESCO City of Music. Tonight, we’re shining a spotlight on the artists who were made on Merseyside, opening the Liverpool Songbook and celebrating the iconic tracks that helped put our city on the musical map. With star singers from the West End and the full might of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra taking to the stage, get ready for hits from The Coral, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, OMD, Cilla Black, Elvis Costello, Ken Dodd, The Spinners, a little-known band called The Beatles, and many, many more.
