Year five children from Ivydale Primary School, shown above sitting nicely and being quiet, were at The Royal Festival Hall as one of eight London schools taking part in the premiere of the opera, The Clothesburger. The hour long piece included music composed by children from all the schools. Each school got their turn at being central performers alongside eight professional grown-ups...by that I mean eight adults who are paid to perform, not eight people who are paid to be grown-up. The children's musical efforts were collated and further composed by the acclaimed and innovative composer Errollyn Wallen.
More on Day 279.
