"Youngsters brought
violins, flutes and trumpets out to play as they took part in
Fleetwood Music & Arts Festival.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The competition, held
over the last two weekends, invites talented musicians to perform,
with the aim of being crowned winners of their class.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The festival saw more
than 200 people, from 6 years old to pensioners, compete in the
piano, instrumental, singing and speech and drama classes, held
in locations across Fleetwood.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Diana Stenson, secretary
for the Festival said "We had a very high standard this year with
children entering from all over the North West.
|
|
|
|
|
|
As well as the four
separate classes, the winners were entered into a championship
class. The winner of the Piano section was Sam Hampson, who was
just 13.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Festival is
a brilliant opportunity for musicians, singers and actors because
it gives them a platform to perform. There isn't a lot of opportunity
for that in the area, so it was lovely to watch."
