It's a vintage year for music on the Tweed<br />
The Murwillumbah <strong>Festival</strong> <strong>of</strong> Performing Arts is 80 years old and the <strong>Tyalgum</strong> <strong>Festival</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Classical</strong> <strong>Music</strong> celebrates its 20th anniversary. I can't believe so much time and music<br />
has flown by until I look at an old photograph <strong>of</strong> me dancing a highland fling with Judy<br />
Budd down the main street <strong>of</strong> <strong>Tyalgum</strong> to the drone <strong>of</strong> Les Peterkin's bagpipes. Many <strong>of</strong><br />
us would still have the annual <strong>Tyalgum</strong> <strong>Festival</strong> c<strong>of</strong>fee mugs crafted by Les each year.<br />
This year's <strong>Festival</strong> will be another celebration <strong>of</strong> music, art and dance in our<br />
incomparably beautiful valley. Many <strong>of</strong> you will remember some <strong>of</strong> this year's artists from<br />
previous festivals, especially Natasha Vlassenko and Oleg Stepanov who performed here<br />
in 1992! It says much for the reputation <strong>of</strong> our <strong>Festival</strong> that many <strong>of</strong> our favourite artists<br />
enjoy returning to join with exciting new performers making their <strong>Tyalgum</strong> debut.<br />
Margot Anthony AM, Patron<br />
So, welcome and thank you, our wonderful patrons, without whose enthusiasm and<br />
loyalty this milestone would not have been reached. What more can I say, but enjoy this<br />
special weekend!<br />
