The show will be pre-recorded and streamed through Bradford College’s YouTube channels so audiences will be able to view it online.

John Dey, Lecturer in Music and Audio Technology, said: “We know that lots of people have missed live music, so hopefully this will be an event that you will be able to enjoy at home!”

The show is expected to last around 35 minutes and will be suitable for all ages. John said: “This would normally be performed live to a physical audience. However, lockdown has meant that we have had to be creative and move it to an online event.”
