Although the centenary of her death was in 2015, she was also remembered by three new musical pieces in 2014 during commemorations of the outbreak of World War One:
* ''Standing as I do before God'' by [[Cecilia McDowall]] - an ''a cappella'' choral setting of the last reported words of Cavell for soprano solo and five-part choir.
* ''The Scarlet Flower'' by [[Nigel Clarke (composer)|Nigel Clarke]] - a Concertino for Flugelhorn & Strings recorded on [[Toccata Classics]] by Longbow String Ensemble.
* ''An Epitaph for Edith Cavell'' by [[Nigel Clarke (composer)|Nigel Clarke]] - a solo violin piece recorded on [[Toccata Classics]] by [[Peter Sheppard Skaerved]].

To commemorate the centenary of her death in 2015, work went ahead to restore Cavell's grave in the grounds of Norwich Cathedral after being awarded a £50,000 grant and was completed in 2016.{{sfn|BBC News|2014b}} and fourteen paintings by [[Brian Whelan]] were commissioned by [[Norwich Cathedral]] to commemorate Cavell's life and death.{{sfn|Whelan|2015|p=12}} [[Norwich Cathedral]] held a memorial service, performed live on BBC Radio 4 on 11 October 2015. In addition to cathedral clergy, guests such as General [[Richard Dannatt]], and actress [[Matilda Ziegler]] performed various spoken vignettes organised by Canon Peter Doll. [[Anto Morra]] sang unaccompanied his "Edith Louisa Cavell" lyrics to a tune written by Percy Paradise.{{sfn|Alhadeff|2015}}

The centenary was also marked by two new musical compositions. The 40-minute oratorio ''Eventide: In Memoriam Edith Cavell'' by [[Patrick Hawes]] premiered in [[Norwich Cathedral]] in July 2014{{sfn|BBC News|2014c}} and had its London premiere in [[St Clement Danes]], The Strand, London on 12 October 2015, the exact centenary of her death. The Belgian Edith Cavell Commemoration Group also commissioned a 20-minute-long setting of the Latin Mass by David Mitchell for the centenary - it premiered in [[Holy Trinity, Brussels|Holy Trinity Pro-Cathedral, Brussels]] on 10 October 2015, in the same choir stalls where Cavell sang in 1915, with [[Joseph Haydn|Haydn's]] ''[[Missa in Angustiis]]'' also performed at the same concert.{{sfn|Mitchell|2015}}

Cavell was featured on a UK commemorative £5 coin, part of a set issued in 2015 by the [[Royal Mint]] to mark the centenary of the war.{{sfn|BBC News|2014}} On 12 October that year a bust in the Montjoiepark in [[Uccle]], Belgium, was inaugurated by [[Princess Anne, Princess Royal]] of Great Britain and Princess [[Astrid of Belgium]]. 2015 also saw a tombstone-shaped monument erected in the memorial garden dedicated to her in Inverness.
