Background: This CD is the latest in a series of innovative musical projects called 'Music for Harry' which raise money to provide direct funding for research into Cystic Fibrosis at the Royal Brompton Hospital London. All monies raised by Crotchet on the sale of this CD will be forwarded to the Royal Brompton.

They started in 1998, since when almost £60,000 has been raised. Harry is a ten year old Cystic Fibrosis sufferer from Dulwich treated by the paediatric unit at the Royal Brompton Hospital.

The research which the project has helped to fund has been very successful. It is the first study anywhere in the world to show the beneficial effects of macrolide antibiotics in treating children suffering from CF who had not responded to other forms of treatment, work which is being developed further. - The Lancet, October 2002.

A message of support from actress Jenny Agutter:

'I support Music for Harry first and foremost because I believe so strongly in the cause. Children with Cystic Fibrosis have already been made healthier by the work which Music for Harry helped to get off the ground'

'Over the past five years, the Music for Harry projects have been wonderfully exciting and imaginative. Breathing is the common link: Music for Harry brings the artistry of wind players and singers to the help of Cystic Fibrosis sufferers.'

'I met the wonderful students from Birmingham at the 2001 Harry concert, and I know everyone will love the 2003 CD and Rebecca Salter's stunningly original cover, and above all I hope everyone will give generously to help Andy Bush and his team help the children.'
