Wyndham council’s Morning Melodies concert series will return online, for a special ANZAC tribute performance next week.

On Tuesday, November 10, residents will be able to tune in to watch Salute to the ANZACS perform live at the Wyndham Cultural Centre.

The event will be broadcast from 11am on the Experience Wyndham Facebook page.

Sing along to hit songs from World War I, World War II and the Vietnam War, with a cast of star performers including international soprano Alison Jones and Opera Australia’s Caroline Vercore.

A backdrop of historical war-time images will play on a big screen accompanied by musical numbers by Dame Vera Lynn, The Andrew Sisters, Bob Dylan and more.

COVID-19 restrictions meant the monthly event had to be cancelled during lockdown.

The council’s director of city life, Allison Kenwood, said the council was thrilled to be able to recommence delivering this much-loved event for locals.

“It’s exciting to see council adapt and continue to deliver events in a way that is safe and accessible for residents during this time,” Ms Kenwood said.

“The online format means that residents can enjoy the performance from the safety of their home.”
