Like many people my
first experience of music
making came when my
enthusiastic father
insisted that I learn the
piano and violin.
Of
course I started out as a
reluctant pupil but now I
am so grateful to him for
introducing me to the
world of music.
As a broadcaster with a passion for classical music, I was
delighted to be invited to join Classic FM last year.
I count
myself very lucky to be able to bring my favourite music
to such a large and appreciative audience.
I love to
receive messages from listeners who have been touched
by the music; there isn t anything as powerful as music
for stirring emotions.
That s probably why so many of us
enjoy making music, whether alone or as part of a group.
I am a proud supporter of the work Classic FM does in
the community through its charity, The Classic FM
Foundation.
Recently, I was invited to see the work that
the charity has funded through Nordoff Robbins music
therapy centre in north London.
