Twenty years ago, Trunk records collated fun compilations of sleazy kitsch. Today, the label uncovers treasures from the immediate past that cast critical light on the present.
Classroom Projects, music made by British junior school children in the ’60s and ’70s, includes everything from a surging choral rendition of Mike Batt’s Bright Eyes to a chilling music-concrete reading of the folk standard The Lyke-Wake Dirge.
Like all great art, Maria Miller and Michael Gove take note, these Classroom Projects weren’t results driven.
