HighnotesIssue 17 • September 2011 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. Here,

North West Region It is with some sadness that I tell you that this is the LAST North West Newsletter. At the Extraordinary General Meeting held in London on 25 January, Making Music members supported the proposal to change the way we are structured. With effect from 1 July 2011, the North West and West Midlands regions will amalgamate to become a new region under the direct control of a paid Regional Manager supported by a number of volunteers. The team of Regional Managers will be led by the Head of Volunteer Management, Peter Stokes, based in Central Office and already in post. So, after editing this final Newsletter, I just wish to thank all those contributors and members of the North West Committee, without which these newsletters would not have been possible. Future communications will most likely be in the form of ebulletins. by Andy Humphreys, Editor newsletter@makingmusicnorthwest. org. uk Organisational Change As you know, Making Music held an Extraordinary General Meet
