IT'S music but not as you know it. This weekend musicians at RAF Lyneham will perform classical recitals on the wing in aid of the Southampton-based charity Wessex Heartbeat.

The Hollies pop group and the English National Philharmonic Orchestra will be playing to a synchronised air display, fireworks and laser light show.

The concert, entitled Classics on the Wing, will be held at the Wiltshire airbase on Saturday. Proceeds will also go to the Royal Air Force Association.

Gates open at 4pm to give spectators the chance to picnic and view the static display of aircraft. The concert starts at 8pm.
