Helen was asked to take photos of the event. Unfortunately (!) she
could not join in the excitement of the competition, but here are some photos
and video clips of the evening performance. Apologies for the fuzzy
pictures .. a combination of Helen's poor camera technique and a tendency which
musicians have to move ....! She has decided to include even the fuzziest
in the interests of 'inclusion', but if anyone wants photos or captions to be
added / edited / removed, let Helen
know - no questions asked!!!
If you would like higher resolutions of any of these photos, get in touch
with Helen, say which photo you want (e.g. row 5, column 2) and she'll mail them
to you.
