EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of talented youngsters from Sydenham Middle School in Leamington, who are making waves in the musical world. These young musicians have been given an incredible opportunity to join forces with St Mary's Church Choir from Warwick for two performances of Benjamin Britten's powerful masterpiece, "War Requiem". The first performance is set to take place tonight at the majestic Coventry Cathedral, followed by another tomorrow night at Central Hall in Westminster. Joining them on this musical journey are esteemed groups such as the University of Warwick Chorus, the university's orchestra and chamber ensemble, and the London Corale - a renowned choir based in London. In this heartwarming image, we see these talented pupils engaged in conversation with Mr. Alan Baker, assistant choirmaster at St. Mary's and a music teacher at their school. The photograph transports us back to March 14th, 1979 when these young boys were only teenagers between thirteen and fourteen years old. Their passion for music shines through as they hold sheet music in their hands while eagerly discussing their upcoming performances. This snapshot serves as a testament to the power of education and events that shape our lives during our formative years. Preserved by Brian Walkeden through Memory Lane Prints, this image stands as a reminder of youthful talent coming together with experienced mentors to create something truly extraordinary within the realm of music.
