“Wonderful music performed by an exceptional group of musicians who transcended the usual barriers of formality between players and audience. It’s even more difficult to make a contribution during a recession but this is something which Winchester and Hampshire have needed for decades – and it must be encouraged to grow.”

David Carson, Associate member, Friends of the Festival scheme
