Listen to us sing
Bravo, Bristol!
Composed in 1914 by Ivor Novello
Words by Fred E. Weatherly
Bravo, Bristol! was created for WWI volunteers in the local Kingswood regiment in Bristol. As the local Kingswood choir, we were honoured to record the recently rediscovered song in 2011 for the Bristol Archives. We sang with Paul Potts, winner of the first Britain's Got Talent competition in 2007.
