And last but "quite the opposite" of least, our heroine's own very special C.V. How could anyone have sung this even half as well as Hayley did? A real delight !! Graeme

Hello everyone, Well I finally received my copy of Different Voices on Thursday and I've just played it for the first time; I wanted to give it my undivided attention. I could not attend the original performance at Cadogan Hall so it was completely new to me (apart from the short preview clips) and i have to say, i thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I especially loved the bits where it was obvious from the music that the children were talking to each other... very poignant... and of course, Hayley's three fine contributions too! This kind of project is so refreshing in these days of 3 minute sound bites and the same old stuff pumped out on the main radio channels (therefore in the charts) day after day and it deserves to get as wide a recognition as possible - let's hope Classic FM can be persuaded to play it and even better would be the cartoon version that's been suggested. I have a strong feeling that when my daughter Emma completes her training as a music teacher, it will soon form part of the curriculum at her school and I hope many others. I'm not sure if my oldest granddaughter (nearly 5) is yet old enough to understand and enjoy it but I'll find out at the weekend! Well done Hayley, Debbie Wiseman, the RPO and Stephen Fry... and yes, the lyricist Don Black and story writer Andrew Brenner too. Even better, it's the musical bargain of the year! [glow=blue,5,800]Brilliant![/glow] Cheers, Dave

Hi Graeme, Did your little 7 year old grand daughter enjoyed the CD? Best wishes, Paulo Correia Yes Paolo, she really did. She is very active & so she was marching & dancing round the room & I think she knows all the lyrics now. We even tried singing along but Hayley easily left us behind. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifI set it up on my Itunes with 2 different playlists....one complete & another with just the tracks with Ellie's songs. I also printed out the lyrics on a Word file so she could read off the words for singing along. Thats when I realised that the lyrics on my CD booklet were different to what Hayley sang. Best Wishes from "almost as far as NZ" Graeme
