SIR - What an enjoyable evening at Birmingham Symphony Hall on Sunday, May 14, for the Worcestershire Youth Musical Gala concert.

Musical talent galore, brass, jazz, string, orchestras and choirs.

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of Chris Stowell and his team and all the young musicians who performed with such enthusiasm and professionalism.

As a guest of the county council, my thanks to them too and I hope they continue to fund music in our schools for our talented young people.

SHEILA NEANY,

Droitwich Spa.
