Something special for the children of a small C of E primary school on the last afternoon of their summer term yesterday. Roy Ayers dropped by – call it an unscheduled stop on his European tour – to perform an impromptu 30 minute set to the children of St Saviour’s Primary School in Little Venice, and to get them singing “Everybody Loves the Sunshine.” A reminder of the unique magic and power of live music to make the heart of communities beat more strongly.

Perhaps some children at a large primary school in SW1 will get the message.
