James Rhodes Instruments

James Rhodes: The Great Instrument Amnesty
Have you got a musical instrument lying unused? Would you donate it to inspire the next generation? Here's how!

"James Rhodes: The Great Instrument Amnesty" (working title) is a Channel 4 series, produced by Fresh One Productions.

Internationally renowned classical pianist James Rhodes is passionate about the power of music. For him, it was a way of overcoming a troubled childhood and its difficult legacy; now he wants to convince others that it can change their lives too. James is concerned about the lack of resources available for music education, so he wants to launch a nationwide campaign to get Britain playing again. But to prove to the rest of the country that his approach can work, he’s going to begin with one town.

Working in partnership with the people of Basildon he’ll spend the next six months doing everything in his power to inspire, encourage and support would-be musicians both old and new to pick up an instrument and get involved. The TV series will follow his efforts and it aims to use them to inspire the rest of the Britain to follow Basildon’s lead.
