On the 23rd July 2004 we added a musical dimension to the Thrive Flower Show. It was a wonderful day, and we had some great comments, including this: "In the middle of a lovely summer's day, binglybongly music reached out and gathered people together around them, moving, dancing and relaxing. It was a revelation to see how such well­chosen music can communicate to people and its holistic and therapeutic effect - so much more so than I had previously realised."
