Brian Beresford is headteacher at Whalley CE School. As a music educator, he has written many songs and instrumental pieces for children at the schools where he has taught.
Wanderweg is a ‘hiking path’: It takes us to a higher level.
All music written and performed by Brian Beresford, except ‘Summer Daze’, which was written with Anna Beresford. The music has been recorded to a high professional standard.

The tracks on Wanderweg have been produced to enhance the worshipful atmosphere and the meditative listening skills of children during collective worship. The music can be played as a focus for reflection or alongside appropriate images or a simple candle flame. The use of carefully chosen music can greatly enrich the spiritual development of a child and bring them closer to the threshold of worship. Encouraging children to be still, to concentrate deeply and reflect upon their own experiences and the world around them, gives the child an opportunity to discover their own spirit and meet with God.
Creative teachers will find many other ways to use Wanderweg in their classrooms, including inspiration for art, poetry and dance.
The titles of the tracks are listed here. Snippets of some examples will soon be heard by clicking on the link buttons. It appears that, in some web browsers, you will need to click the button twice to make it work.
