Sandy and Phyllis were a wonderful couple.
They both passed away in 2011 and we will miss them dearly.
Although we knew Sandy and Phyllis for less than a decade, we grew very fond of them and we felt all along as if our friendship went many years back.

In January 2009 the fourth edition of the Honorary Prizes "David Russell" for young talented musicians took place at the Professional Conservatory of music in Vigo.
In the middle of a wintery storm, with strong winds and heavy rain, the auditorium of the conservatory was like an oasis in the desert, oblivious to the blizzard outside and filled with wonderful music. An unforgettable three day experience.

The third edition of the Honorary Prizes "David Russell" for young talented musicians took place in January 2008 at the Professional Conservatory of Music in Vigo.
These prizes have a double purpose. On one hand the idea is to inspire all the young players and value their work and, on the other, there is the humanitarian side of trying to help other people in need with the money collected from the inscription fees. (Photographs at the end of this article).

I would like to tell you about a concert I did last night.
At the moment I'm on tour sponsored by the British Council, the first half being solo recitals in the Philippines and Indonesia.
Yesterday's concert was the fourth of the trip, and it was on the island of Palawan, a long narrow island in the southwest extreme of the Philippine archipelago.
