My friend Lyndall Rosewarne, who has died aged 64 of cancer, was a significant figure in music education in the east of England. She pioneered a grassroots approach to music development, with the aim that all young people have the chance to participate.
From 2003 she worked as eastern regional officer for Youth Music, a national charity that aims to increase access for young people. Lyndall and I met during this time, when I was a development officer for Hertfordshire Music Service.
