DESCRIPTION:THE EMBER BIG BAND - "REMEMBERING WESTON`S WAR".\nAll Saints\,
  the church by the pond at Weston Green\, was consecrated in 1939.   Month
 s later\, we were at war – and the parish paid a heavy price.   It was o
 n the main supply route between London and Southampton\; close to the Hawk
 ers factory in Kingston (where Hurricane bombers were being made) and to W
 eybridge (where Vickers was producing Wellingtons as fast as it could with
  the help of women of the community who took on factory work while their m
 enfolk were away fighting).  Nick Handel\, a former BBC TV producer\, has 
 put together a `musical documentary` celebrating 80 years since the end of
  hostilities.   It paints a picture of the war years through the eyes of l
 ocal people whose early childhood was spent under the threat of air invasi
 on and air attack while enduring evacuation and privation.\n\nWorld War 2 
 also gave birth to some of greatest songs ever written – and\, for Westo
 n`s War\, Nick is bringing in The Ember Big Band to reflect the period wit
 h numbers like "Little Brown Jug"\, "The White Cliffs of Dover"\, "In the 
 Mood"\, "Sing Sing Sing"  "On the Sunny Side of the Street" and "We`ll Mee
 t Again".  \n\n"Remembering Weston`s War" recalls incidents that will asto
 nish a 21st century audience
