Alpha School of Music singing to a new tune
Apr 28th, 2021 | Category: Special Reports | 5:02#JamaicaGleaner #AlphaInstitute #Digicel #ColmDelves APRIL 28, 2021: One of Jamaica’s most treasured music institutions, Alpha Institute, has opened a state-of-the-art facility with the goal of training 120 students in performance and technology in the next four years. The Digicel Foundation sponsored the renovation of the school’s old dormitories to create a dedicated space for students to practise, learn, and access resources. The renovated building has been named in honour of Digicel’s former CEO, Colm Delves, who passed away in April 2020 after a battle with cancer. Delves was a known lover of reggae music and spent much of his free time in Jamaica attending live shows and collecting memorabilia.
