Musicians from all over the world come together to spread joy at Easter during the Covid-19 Pandemic and help to raise funds for the charity, Help Musicians.

Please donate if you can, and thank you. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/whatfg. Every penny goes to Help Musicians, and every little helps. Musicians across the globe, overnight, lost all of the income that they would have made in gathering music-lovers together in venues everywhere to enjoy concerts, shows, performances, gigs, recitals, festivals, productions. Help Musicians and others are supporting professionals financially and we want to help. It’s our way of saying thank you for the music. From Tom: “Thank you to all the amazing people who took part: neighbours, friends, star singers (including from Australia, Germany, Italy, Norway, Portugal, UK, and US), and a special mention to all the fabulous members of the Royal Opera House Chorus who joined in with children and families from all over, playing, singing and making noise. It was a fun arrangement to make, inspired in part by Marlene Dietrich's wonderful version. There are two full organs, a mandolin, and a melodica and everything in between. Hopefully this will be a reminder that, in the end, whatever happens, we are all in it together.” See links below for more information on help and advice that is on offer for musicians.
