Dumfries Accordion & Fiddle Festival

Competition Results, 28th March 2015
Photographs copyright Caroline Menzies
The 2015 festival, held on 28th March, turned out to be a great success. Entries were at an excellent level, almost 70, and the quality of playing kept the larger than normal audience entertained all day. The adjudicator for the day was young local musician and teacher Robert Menzies, making his first venture into adjudicating. The format of the festival changed this year and adjudications and prize-giving were done at the end of the day.
