Already as a 14-year old, Christopher had the baton in his hand, leading a group of about 12 elderly Health Retreat patients and staff in songs. ‘How can he and how does this young boy dare work with us oldies’ I (who could have been his grandmother) wondered. But soon enough it was clear: his enthusiasm, confidence, utter charm, familiarity and love of music and people, and complete control of the situation. It was not important how old we were, as long as he could make us sing and enjoy it. He jokingly got us through the daily morning rituals, making us feel much better even improving our health. Thank you, Christopher.
