Attendees: Sting, 200 schoolchildren

Sting is present during a performance of "Yanomamo", a musical about the rainforest which was performed by the choir and musicians of St Augustine's R.C. High School (Billington, England) at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, USA.

The world's first ecological musical was written by two Lancashire school teachers: Peter Rose and Anne Conlon. It tells the story of the Amazon rainforest and the Indians who live there. It was originally commisioned by the WWF (UK) and forms part of their Educational materials for teachers.

Sting also attended a press conference about the rainforest and was interviewed for "Good Morning America".

Today's performance of "Yanomamo" was released as a VHS cassette called Songs Of The Forest.
