Chris is a champ!!


I am very proud to say my husband Chris came second in the "National Chromatic Harmonica Championships" this weekend in Bristol.

The weekend festival was very exciting with all genre's represented, and virtuosic playing from fine players from all over the world in the evening concert.

This is only the second time Chris has entered the competition, and he has only been playing seriously for under three years (he practises, unlike me!).

There were some very nice performances throughout the day, and workshops and seminars . All quite "Harmonicarry" really. We also has some very nice pumpkin soup in the covered market.

All very exciting, what more could you ask?

National Association of Music Educators


I have just got back from two days at the NAME conference in Birmingham with Kevin Mayhew Ltd. It was an excellent event, and very exciting meeting many people who use my books and find them useful. It was also really good to be able to talk to teachers and explain my work to them, and find out what they needed.
