Congratulations to “Strings” on their performance in the church last Saturday,it was brilliant, I loved the last classical piece played by 2 members on the violin and accompanied by the piano.I hope I can make it from Dublin in time for your concert in Drishane in June It is great to see young people involved in music. Is the concert all classical or will there be a mix of traditional ? Best of luck in Derry and hope to hear more from “Strings” in and around Millstreet Town, keep up the great work.Mol
