Madehurst Cricket Club BNO19 - UK Queen - 13th July 2019
UK Queen with Alexander Koronka was formed out of a love of re-producing Queen’s top hits with top musicians. Requested by Ambassadors and Royalty, Alexander (Al) fronts his hand picked live band as ‘Freddie Mercury’ and he has performed from the Queen songbook for well over a decade to audiences from all over the globe, including Malta, India, The Middle East, Scandinavia, up and down the UK and throughout continental Europe. Audiences can range from a select few, to the tens of thousands.
UK Queen seek to create a musical ‘experience’ and may be accompanied by classical quartets or top sopranos to deliver songs such as’ Barcelona’. Classically trained, Alexander also performs solo, or with/without his band and an 80 piece orchestra…… depending of course on the scale of the event. With amazing on-stage skill and energy, Alexander’s desire is not just to faithfully reproduce Queen’s greatest hits, but to expand an audience’s musical journey by introducing more and more people to the truly magnificent and broad song book of Queen, accompanied by only the very best musicians. He will ‘Rock You’ he will “Deliver’.
