__Turtle Song gives the opportunity for people with Alzheimer’s or dementia and their
companions to sing and compose their own songs with professional
musicians. The project is a collaboration with Turtle Key Arts, English Touring Opera and the Royal College of Music. The group meets once a week over
ten weeks, and the aims of the project are to enjoy singing together, to write a song
cycle, to record the songs on CD and to give the brain and the body a
bit of stimulating exercise. The project's 5th outing takes place at the Warden's Charitable Trust, just north of Aldeburgh.
