Thank you!
Thank you to all on the WMS committee for programming this concert. The evening was very special to me indeed and I will cherish the happy memories made. To perform with my own teacher Jane, good friend and RNCM colleague Matthew and his incredible teacher John was an absolute joy. A huge thank you goes to them for their astonishing music making and for making the evening such a success.
