Primary school children from the Horsham and Weald areas joined the Christ’s Hospital Music Department for a day of fun and creative music-making on June 7.

The 55 children participated in workshops on composition, ensemble playing and singing which all came together in a spectacular final performance.

The children worked together with Christ’s Hospital pupils and specialist music teachers to prepare Lean on Me (Bill Withers) and a Latin American Folk Song in the choir and in the strings section, Spring from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons.

The stormy weather added to the exciting atmosphere as all the children worked on Storm, a piece specially arranged for the day by Christ’s Hospital Composer-in-Residence, Paul Robinson.
