We must say a huge "thank you" to our two adjudicators, Daniel Chandler, who was with us for the instrumental classes on Monday, and Steven Roberts, who also adjudicated some of the Monday classes and was with us for the rest of the week.

Steven tweeted: "Thank you for a great time @MWMusicFestival - such tremendous talent and a privilege to be able to hear you all!"

And Daniel emailed: "This is just a quick note to say thank you for inviting me to adjudicate in Kendal today. It was a terrific day with lots of talented performances." Daniel will be one of our adjudicators at the 2019 Festival.
