We had such a wonderful year in 2019 but since it has not been possible to run the competition in 2020, we gave performers the opportunity to play in our virtual concert on Saturday, November 14th at 7.00pm. We had 17 perfomers who will between them gave a concert lasting about 1 hour.

Sadly, there is little prospect of us getting back to normal in 2022.
