One of the UK’s most prominent film and TV composers, who attributed her success to her “Jewish work ethic”, has written the music for the Queen’s 90th birthday celebration.
Debbie Wiseman described being asked to compose the orchestral overture and finale music for the four-day event in May as “very, very special”.
The music will be performed in front of members of the royal family at Windsor Castle. The final night, when the Queen will attend, will be broadcast live on ITV.
Ms Wiseman said: “I treated it like writing music for a film where you’re inspired by the characters — my character here was the Queen.
