We  are grateful to the Coffs Harbour Conservatorium for significantly supporting our event this year.  I am also very grateful to the generous families and businesses who have sponsored our event.  This year I would like to acknowledge Joy Griffin.   Joy Griffin, a former instrumental teacher in Coffs,  has continually supported the piano and instrumental eisteddfod.  Her son, Philip Griffin,  now living on the Gold Coast now continues to support the awards.  This continuing support enables the eisteddfod to run smoothly and  enables us to continue to offer Major Award prize money.

 

Our adjudicator, Miguel Wu, is once again running a 2 hour masterclass on Sunday 29th May, 3pm – 5pm.  This is a public masterclass, free for audience members, with a small charge for the 4 individual pianists who wish to participate.  If you would like to play for the masterclass, please let me know.

 

Once again, we will be selling hot soup, bread, tea and coffee on Saturday at lunchtime. 

 

I look forward to hearing and seeing everyone.

 

 

Sincerely

 

Alice Jamison

Organiser, Piano Eisteddfod.
