Trust The Person

North East London Voices worked with up to 50 young people across Redbridge and Waltham Forest to devise a brand new collection of songs based on topics that were relevant to them. 

As a result of these workshops, This Is Me was created and had its World Premiere in March 2016.

In August 2016, the NELV Collective went into the studio to record an EP of their work. 

North East London Voices was run by Redbridge Music Service and the North East London Music Education Hub and the following facilitators:

Vocal Animateur and Project Leader, Rebecca Baxter
Composer and Musical Director, Omar Shahryar
Assistant Musical Director, Del Harrison 
Librettist, Adrian Loftman

Recorded at The Premises Studio, Hackney
Recorded and mixed by Neil Tollitt
