In Episode 137, Patrick meets Tessa Armstrong, founder and director of Voices for Life, who provide free singing workshops and concerts for primary children, with a focus on well-being.

MTA President James Manwaring updates listeners about A Choir in Every School, including the latest newsletter.

And Natalie Wild and Christopher Tarrant chat about their latest book, The Composer’s Toolkit, in which students are guided through tried-and-tested compositional techniques and processes, dating back hundreds of years, and still very relevant to student composers in 2026. 

Presented and produced by Patrick Johns.
