The Abingdon Music Festival is a charity established in 1998. It holds classes and a concert each year, giving young musicians and adult performers the opportunity to perform in front of an audience and receive feedback from professional adjudicators.
This year’s festival ran over two weekends. The piano classes took place from 6–8 November, followed by the other classes on 14–15 November. Most of the classes were held at Trinity Church, although St Nicolas’ Church was also used for some of the piano classes on Friday 6 November.
Some of the performers have been selected to take part in a concert at Trinity Church this evening.
The festival has a no-photography policy because obtaining permission from every participant would be impractical. However, I did manage to get a couple of photographs outside Trinity.
The first, thanks to Lynette, shows vapour trails above Trinity yesterday, when the sky was clear. You will have to imagine the music.
The second was taken this evening. Rain was falling shortly before people began arriving for the concert.
