It is wonderful recognition for the boys Haberdashers’ Monmouth Schools. Everything is a cycle of 12 songs about human discovery, invention, movement, language, atoms and cells all feature. The Friday Afternoons songs by composer Russell Hepplewhite with texts by former Children’s Laureate Michael Rosen, are designed to fire up the imaginations of infant and primary school children with a healthy dose of fun, humour, playfulness, and heart. Mr Walton said: “We are all so excited to be premiering Life by Russell Hepplewhite for Britten Pears Arts’ Friday Afternoons. “It is such an honour to have been selected and we have been enjoying learning the piece so much.
