I love Highland Cathedral. How lovely to see such enthusiastic young musicians. Looks like the King and Queen enjoyed it.

Thank you P3. Beautiful and heart rending Best rendition I've ever seen was a New Year concert with Andre Rieu orchestra and a female bagpipe soloist. I recommend all to give it a try. Quite wonderful.

The Big Noise provides musical training to young people who would not otherwise have access to it.

The Big Noise children came from a deprived area in Stirling and were the subject of a documentary a few years ago.Before the programme there was hardly any interest in music or instruments ,nowadays the uptake is huge .It was a great success

The Big Noise is also providing tuition in Govanhill, Glasgow.

very pleased it has been rolled out to other areas ,the first programme was very emotional to watch and all the children involved seemed to gain a lot from it
