The West Wales Brass Festival saw an encouraging field of entries, which doubled from last year's event.
There was an exceptional group of adjudicators lined up for the day - Mr Alan Bourne, Mr Matthew Jenkins to adjudicate the solo, duet and trio classes; Mr Tom Davoren and Mr Nigel Seaman to adjudicate the Ensembles and Youth Band sections.

It meant that all the entrants received two sets of encouraging and supportive feedback on their performances.

Tom said: "It was a real pleasure coming back to Burry Port to adjudicate this event again this year and it is totally heartening to see Burry Port Town Band looking outside the tempting boundaries of self-preservation to benefit brass playing of all levels throughout West Wales. The day was both fun-filled and musically exciting and I cant wait to come back next year!
Graham Howe, the band's chairman commented; "We were very lucky with support from the Burry Port and Pembrey Town Council, Ty Cerdd, Treveda Music and parents of the performers all supporting the event. Thanks also to Jenkins Photography who captured many memories for the young players involved. It was especially pleasing to see not only the young players performing, but all young conductors being given opportunities too - something we will try to encourage more of for future events."
Geraint Thomas, the festival coordinator, added: "Preparations for next years event have already started, with a provisional date either at the end of January or the beginning of February being proposed and will also include percussion sections in addition to this years classes. We look forward to sending out invitations towards the end of the summer for this event."
