The Lloyd’s Choir Spring Concert
The Lloyd’s Choir Spring Concert on 27 March 2025 at St Giles Cripplegate Church, City of London, will feature the world premiere of a new choral work by the Choir’s Music Director Jacques Cohen, commemorating the sinking of the British ship HMT Lancastria in June 1940, which resulted in a huge loss of life at least equal to the combined losses of the ‘Lusitania’ and ‘Titanic’ disasters (the losses from the Lancastria are estimated as being between 4,000 and 7,000). It is possibly the worst disaster in British maritime history, certainly the largest loss of life from one vessel, and 2025 will be the 85th anniversary.
