In response to the Manchester Arena Terror Attack, members of the Parrs Wood High School Harmony Group came together to pay their respects through music and singing. The aim was to raise funds for the victim’s families and support with ongoing financial costs.
They recorded a cover of My Everything by Ariana Grande and within days the song was being played on National Television. The choir were invited to perform with Ariana Grande at the One Love Concert in Manchester, touching the hearts of millions across the world.
The song is as a message of hope, reminding everyone how powerful music can be in bringing communities together in times of need. A number of children in the choir were also at the Manchester Arena concert.
