Kiwi professional mezzo soprano Anna Pierard and Kathryn Ryan talk about how music can change children's lives.  Anna is the co-creator of the Prima Volta Charitable Trust which introduces Hawkes Bay teenagers to opera. 

Recently Anna has been helping to introduce Hawkes Bay primary students to music teaching technique Kodály, which has been credited with turning-around the fortunes of a failing school in Bradford in the UK. 

Principal of Te kura o Mangatereere in Whakatu, Mona Stewart, her pupil Azmon Kauiand Project Prima Volta graduate Tomairangi Henare join the conversation.
