Today has seen more announcements of the easing of LockDown ... outdoor performances but not for the many choirs we all know and love .... and finally some research ...... how long will this take to do? I really hope they don't forget us in their conversations and yes, think about the performing arts in theatres but please don't forget about all the people in the local communities who love to perform too!
Let's keep up the amazing work on this petition and hopefully we can find our voice!
"The Secretary of State has also commissioned a scientific study on the risks associated with singing and brass instruments which will be done in partnership with Public Health England, professional musicians from the Royal Opera House and the BBC and scientists from Imperial College, London and Bristol University. This will help inform our work on getting the performing arts fully back up and running safely, by testing what can be done safely."
"Singing and the playing of brass and wind instruments in groups or in front of an audience is limited to professionals only."
