This is a fab charity supporting young musical talent: click on the picture below.

Young Sounds UK

Musical talent is everywhere but opportunity isn’t: family finances and other obstacles too often get in the way. Young Sounds are here to change this!

Can anyone please tell me the best place/person/way to learn how to write choral music? I have only a rudimentary knowledge so far. 🙂🙏

 If you only have one set of parallel pliers on your bench, this is the set to have.

That's a wrap!
Last instruments have been taken in and I won't be able to take any more for at least the next 8-9 months (unless I've promised something).
Thank you for trusting me with your wonderful instruments and for your lovely company, conversations and friendship over the last 8 years. Do pop in sometime if you can 🙂🙏❤️

Hello dear woodwind customers 🙂 From 1 November, due to starting a full time finance job, I shall only be taking in a very small number of repair jobs on the Island, maybe one per week.

Thanks to all for your wonderful custom over the last 8 years, Ian.

Acts of kindness are infinitely precious. A customer who had a quick repair and was not charged, brought these as a gift - even remembering my favourite coffee and that I am gluten-free. ❤️
