This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. The Ensemble's performance is book-ended by Eric Whitacre's haunting "Sleep" and a setting of "The Lonesome Road". There's a humorous interlude, but you're going to have to watch to find out what that is.
Vocal Ensemble is a small choral group made up of 18 of Exeter School's finest singers, aged 15 to 18. The choir was formed in 2008 in response to requests from the wider community to provide a small, portable, vocal group to perform at a variety of concerts and events. Vocal Ensemble has sung at weddings, for dinners and a variety of outreach occasions. Their repertoire covers a broad range of music from jazz, pop and classical genres, and can be contacted via music@exeterschool.org.uk.

At TEDxExeter 2014 our speakers and performers connected us with other worlds. Our talks exposed corruption in big business, shared effective approaches to tackling social inequality and gave a voice to those whose human rights are under threat. We explored the impact of fast changing technologies on all our lives. We journeyed through fire and forest to frozen landscapes. We were challenged to consider worlds of extremes, cutting edge controversies and risky opportunities.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
