Magna Carta Through Song
Magna Carta Through Song: Matt's Diary (Friday 24th April 2015)
On Friday 24th April 2015, we were invited to Odiham by John Champion from the Odiham Magna Carta Society to take part in the filming of 'Magna Carta - Our Shared Legacy of Liberty', a new documentary by Canadian journalist John Robson and Brigitte Pellerin.
We had a tour around the Odiham Castle site and were filmed performing 'America' live in front of the castle ruins. The documentary will be featured at the Liberty Film Festival in Ottawa, Canada this autumn before being distributed across the internet. You can see some more images from the day on John's documentary blog.
A preview of the song can be viewed below:
