Young Musicians raise money for Music Makers
The Sanderstead United Reformed Church held a mid-summer concert raising £750 in aid of Classic FM Music Makers.

The concert showcased the talent of 61 local young musicians, ranging in age from 7-19 years old.

Organiser Patrick Henderson came to our Champagne Reception to present the cheque to Classic FM Music Makers' new ambassador, Hayley Westenra.

Our huge thanks go to everyone involved for creating such a wonderful concert.

The money raised will go towards funding music education and music therapy for children and adults across the UK.

There is a brief report about the Music Makers on the Classic FM website which you can read below.

Hayley Westenra, Charity Ambassador
We are delighted to announce Hayley is the first official Ambassador for Classic FM Music Makers and the annual Supporter’s Reception was the perfect place to launch the partnership.

The reception was a lavish affair at The Arts Club in Mayfair, and was hosted by Classic FM’s breakfast show presenter Simon Bates.

Coming together to celebrate the good news was a variety of friends of the charity including artists such as cellist Julian Lloyd-Webber, Classical Brit Award winners Blake, and violinists Nicola Benedetti and Ruth Palmer.

Guests were entertained by an exclusive performance from Hayley and also The Raven Quartet.

We are delighted that Hayley has chosed to support Music Makers. Hayley says of the partnership " I am thrilled to be the first official charity Ambassador for Classic FM Music Makers. I have seen first hand the power which music can have in changing people's lives, and I can't wait to help all I can."

Over the next few months Hayley will be visiting some of the music therapy and education projects across the UK which Music Makers funds.

On the night Classic FM Music Makers also awarded a grant of £100,000 to The Prince’s Foundation for Children & The Arts. Chairman of the foundation Rick Wills, received the cheque from Simon and Hayley. The money will be used to fund the second year of the educational 'Music Quest' project.

Thank you for the news item announcing on this site Hayley's appearance in Washington, D.C.  Yes, it was a wonderful performance, and Hayley was well received.  Personally, I didn't see the "sadness" but I also don't have High Def.  What I saw was Hayley giving her very best, just as she always does.  As has been stated, I'm sure she was emotionally into the song-an appropriate response- and the people responded.  She didn't come across as tired to me either.  Hayley is a professional, and giving her best just comes naturally to her.  Had she sung "I feel pretty," she would no doubt have smiled and even bubbled a lot more.  "Shenandoah" called for pouring out one's heart, and that's exactly what she did!  When the song was over, out came the smiles and the acknowledment of the many fans in the crowd.  I hope Hayley comes to the USA as often as she can.  Everytime she does, we, the fan base people of the United States, get very excited.  Have you noticed?*
 
Happy Summer/Winter to all!
Klassical
 
*P.S.  ...and there's a lot of us, too (lot, here, meaning "mucho!")

Hi just registered today to the site and I am quite excited because I'm taking my 4 children to see Haley in concert this Sunday - just wondering what songs she's likely to sing. I'm sure she wil change her format around quite a bit - but without doubt we prefer the songs from her first album pure - and in this regard we have seen how her voice has developed from such a young age to where it is now - pure magic !

regards
Alan
