A great evening of music, guest speakers, and great company. Short auction, delicious food & drink to buy. All to improve prisoners' lives.

Really enjoyable and often moving afternoon at Pentonville prison - Music in the Ville … me on the bagpipes, two opera singers, a cellist, violinist, guitarist and prisoners signing along. Music is such a healer and some of the prisoners have real musical talent 1/2
