As part of the Young Artists Programme study at the RNCM, WHGS music students appeared on BBC Breakfast, sharing their positive experiences of the Junior RNCM initiative. More to the point, our very own Eden-Haya appeared on the BBC Breakfast sofa and was interviewed alongside Ben Dunne, the founder of the River Reeves Foundation.
Through an application and reference process, students attend every Saturday morning and the opportunity has been funded by the River Reeves Foundation, in memory of River Reeves (band member of Viola Beach) and Sony UK Music.
Out of all of the other schools and colleges involved, our students were the ones selected to be interviewed. Those on the course and have been on the programme include, Eden, Chandan, Goncalo, Petra, Jamie, Romain, Robert, Matthew, Leena, Chethan, Hana, Hasti, Maysa, Eniola, Judith and Jonas.
I would like to take the opportunity to thank Ben Dunne and the River Reeves Foundation, Royal Northern College of Music and Sony Music UK.

Head of Music
