On doorsteps, in gardens and even from atop mountainous peaks our young CnES instrumental music pupils  have been busy playing tributes to our key workers.  In the case of pipers this has been part of a national campaign called #pipeupforkeyworkers. The performances, which have been taking place every Thursday since before the April holidays, are now eagerly awaited by a growing audience of family, friends and neighbours’ who listen live or online.   The pupils, all of whom have been learning online during the lockdown, have learnt a whole host of repertoire ranging from Hector the Hero to popular songs such as What a Wonderful World.

CnES would like to pay our own tribute, by giving a big round of applause, to our intrepid and dedicated army of musicians.
