Wow. What a poignant reflection of how music brings people together, and the ways it can move and surprise us. These kids are beyond talented and filled with passion. The Global Orchestra was so fortunate to work with Ps22 Chorus when Charlie Chan performed “We The Children” at the United Nations.

A great resource that consolidates all that we can do to help in the face of the crisis. The New Year has never looked so grim.

Call for climate action: Write to your MP to encourage urgent climate action, underlining that climate change contributes to drought conditions, bushfires and heatwaves. To find your MP and how they vote: https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/

'I love improvising on the piano. I do it because its physical, mental and connects me to how I am feeling. I don't really rehearse any of my improvisations....

Cheers to that! We hope everyone is having a safe and happy holiday season.
