The concert was to commemorate the 45th Anniversary of the release of Australian Army Nurses from a prison camp in Sumatra. Along with the programme for the evening, it also includes historical information and information on all those involved. In the prison camp in Sumatra a vocal orchestra was formed amongst the women, they sang together for over a year amidst the death and despair and filth of the camp, providing hope and some joy in such a terrible place. This concert was organised in their honour and to aid the Red Cross. 74 singers were trained to recreate the Vocal Orchestra of Sumatra. Staple-bound booklet on white paper. The cover is covered in sheet music and the title and event details are printed over the top in black ink.
