Paul Maymi: I learnt recently it was Henry VI that started the royal academy of music. He wanted to hear continuos heavenly choir music performed throughout his residences espocially while in prayers, so singers and musicians were specially trained by specialist teachers at the royal acadamy. Many apprenticeships looked after local communities just because they entered the royal school of music.

Through teaching in primary schools, she has experienced first-hand the lack of opportunities for the musically talented child.In 2004 she founded a charity, Future Talent, which aims to give every child an equal opportunity to excel in music. Future Talent seeks to do for musically talented children what teaching care and motivation did for Billy Elliot in dance.Through tailor-made partnerships with primary schools, Future Talent is bringing music into the lives of all children, spotting talent, equipping talented children with instruments and tuition and, in exceptional cases, providing master tuition to enable them to make music their future.Whether children want to sing, play the violin or the electric guitar, Future Talent is giving them the chance to fulfil their potential through dev! eloping their musical talent.
