Over 100 musicians, as well as about fifty local youngsters, descended on this small village in the heart of the Weald of Kent for ten days to perform a vast range of music. Musicians of international standing worked beside those less experienced, sharing their common love for music. Over 5000 people visited our village to enjoy listening to their imaginative programmes.
