Adjudicating
I adjudicated for the North Wales Slow melody competition last year and other music festivals and am available for similar work.
The Rememberance Day Bugle Project
2015 heralds the start of this project where John aims eventually to supply a bugler to each of the villages around Llandyrnog to commemorate the sacrifice made by British forces in the major conflicts. 3 fine buglers commemorated the event this year in John’s home village of Llandyrnog, all students of his. This was a wonderful event and one that teaches the young player the importance of respect and working together.
