Yesterday evening we were delighted to witness 'Where will Music Take You' with over 120 young musicians and hundreds of young singers from Lancashire performing at one of the UK's most prestigious venues Bridgewater Hall. Things like this transform young lives and we look forward to seeing some of these incredibly talented young people go on to enjoy further success and rewarding music careers. Congratulations to Lancashire Music Hub and all involved! It was a real JOY! ... See MoreSee Less
