Today we received the very sad news that Adam Warne, a wonderful, much loved percussionist at Northern School of Contemporary Dance has passed away after a short illness.

An extremely talented musician, we were very lucky to have Adam and his music at NSCD and grateful that he also loved working at the School. The sensitivity and creativity in his music making was inspirational.  He inspired our teachers and our students to draw out their best and supported the learning process for everyone.

Adam was kind, thoughtful and generous. He spread a calm, positive energy around him. We are all the richer for knowing Adam and for his radiant presence and music in the School.

He was loved by all and will be sadly missed.

– Janet Smith, NSCD Principal
