  www.musiced.org.uk: LEA Music Awards 2002
Two key appointments were made in the year: first, of a Music Development Leader, to extend the range of creative opportunities for staff and students; and secondly, an Early Years Lead Teacher to develop INSET and co-ordinate curriculum support.
Launched at an Early Years Music Conference attended by delegates from LEAs throughout the North, the publication was sold nationally and the proceeds still fund the purchase of new instruments, the Youth Orchestra’s annual tours and other initiatives.
Within that development was an Elizabethan music project resulting in several hundred students learning to dance the Pavan dressed in Elizabethan costume and singing songs from the Tudor era.

 The Music Box: Ten Summer Barbeque Discs for 2002 (Album Review)
It’s just not a summer backyard party without the kids dislocating limbs on the slip-n-slide over the sounds of Louisiana Zydeco music, and the current queen of the genre is Rosie Ledet.

At times, the music stirs memories of working-stiff rocker Bob Seger (Trouble and Strife), but most of the time the band sounds like Eric Clapton’s recent light bluesy rock work (Fireman and Between You and the Blues).
