The four Concerts of the Allegri Quartet took place at St Myllin's Church, while Cantiones performed in the grounds of Bodfach Hall, just outside Llanfyllin.

We are extremely grateful, as ever, to Christopher Symons for his programme notes, a wonderful blend of readable scholarship and musicality, and a real contribution to our enjoyment of the music.

Rebecca Bailey, our Educational Outreach Officer, has written a report on the two visits the Allegri made to schools in the area as part of the Festival. It is good to hear that the children of Llanfyllin and Llanfechain are hearing such good music from such fantastic performers at such an early age!

It is even better to see that their interest survives - as witness this review by one of our younger audience members. Long may it continue.
