Thank you Andy Casterton and The British School

Thank you ever so much to Andy Casterton and The British School, Rio de Janeiro for the donation of a Technics digital piano to the project. Believe it or not we were a music school without a single keyboard or piano in sight – until now! Thanks also to João Neri for driving us down to the British School in Urca in his van to pick it up.
