Jake was commissioned in 2011 to produce an original Ukulele performance/workshop for the Manchester International Festival called 'Super Duper Musical Hero'. This workshop was taken to schools in the Manchester area and was repeated in custom built Music Boxes as part of the festival where CBeebies presenters worked in conjunction with Jake to create an all singing and dancing ensemble Ukulele show each day. The success of this workshop was repeated the following year when it was re-comissioned by the Abu-Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation.
