Musequality is a charity that supports music education projects for underprivileged children in developing countries. The projects Musequality supports use music as a way of helping children rebuild their confidence and encouraging them to aim high in life. It really works! Although those children have had a very difficult start in life, music helps them reintegrate themselves into their community and concentrate on their future with some of them going on to study at university. You can find out more about Musequality at http://www.musequality.org.

Thanks to David Juritz and Musequality for asking Richard at the very last minute (the day before!) to play Haydn and for filming it, to Transport for London for giving so much support to Musequality across the TFL network and last, but by no means least, to The Ring, across from Southwark tube, for letting Richard take a chair from their pub!
