Despite the terrible weather on Thursday evening, as soon as we entered the packed church we felt an atmosphere of anticipation and excitement. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and despite being only able to get tickets right at the back, we had an excellent view of the platform where the musicians were performing. We thoroughly enjoyed all the items in the concert and felt privileged to hear some pieces of music which are rarely performed. It was so heartening to see and hear young talented musicians played together with such evident, infectious enjoyment which lifted the spirits in these dark and gloomy times. Thank you to everyone for all the hard work putting together a festival of music to such high standard. We hope very much to return next year.
