2019 – The Victorians
In 2019 the song celebrated the 200th birthday of Her Majesty Queen Victoria. The song, written and published by Out of the Ark Music, was entitled Victorians – What did the Victorians do for us? It looked at the wonderful things the Victorians brought us, from pedal bikes and electric lights to railway trains and sewage drains. The song also reminded us that the UK today is a rich tapestry of different faiths and cultures because of the legacy of the Commonwealth, which Queen Victoria championed during her reign.
It promoted mutual respect for all those from different faiths, which is a wonderful legacy. Again, an amazing live event was staged at Peel Park in Salford where primary school representatives from each music service attended.
