Music staff and pupils from Monmouth School for Girls recently joined together for a charity concert.

The Musical Roots concert showcased the talents of six staff in an evening which raised £307.15 for Music in Hospitals and Care Wales.

Christopher Horner, a violin tutor, professional performer and event organiser, said: “As musicians, we get so much out of a wonderful evening like this. It is very important for us, as tutors, to be making music together and also with pupils.”

He added: “Music in Hospitals and Care Wales is a fantastic charity to support. It’s amazing what live music can do.”

Tom Arrand, acting head at the school, said: “We need talented people to inspire our young people to continue to play and perform.

“Unless we continue to inspire a generation to become performers, to pick up instruments and to learn those instruments at a competent level, something will be lost in society.”
