Musician Moments: Dan Walsh

Our musicians have been speaking about some of the most significant moments they have experienced whilst sharing Joy Through Live Music with Music in Hospitals & Care.

Dan Walsh has been working with us in South England since 2017.

“I was singing in a care home for people living with dementia and had reached the instrumental section of the song. During this I became aware of some humming behind me. I turned round and the humming patient took this as a cue, stood up and unleashed a phenomenal voice almost knocking me to the floor! He sang the song with such amazing passion, emotion and power and the staff and patients were absolutely gobsmacked.”

Make double the difference this March

From today until midday on 24 March, every donation will be doubled up to £5,000. Donate today to make twice the impact and create moments of real connection through live music for people in hospitals and care settings.
