Wendy Brook Music Festival Association Submitted Last year the Wendy Brook Music Festival had to be cut short due to COVID-19, and the Awards Concert was cancelled. The committee was determined to have a festival this year, even though it had to be online. Students submitted unlisted YouTube videos and were adjudicated. Unfortunately, these videos could not be made available to the general public. Some classes could not go ahead, due to the restrictions, but there was good participation in the classes that could happen, and there was fantastic
support from the community to enable it to happen. The festival also gave students a reason to keep up their skills and continue with practising. In addition, they learned the challenges of making a good recording. Unfortunately, with the restrictions on gatherings, there could be no final concert, and the idea of having an outdoor awards ceremony had to be abandoned. However, the committee has handed out awards. Bursaries will also be handed out to attend in person or online music and drama camps. Shade Clark has already received a bursary sponsored by Perogies and Jam.
The awards for this year are as follows below. Please note that some awards were not handed out because there were no entries due to COVID-19: • Composition: Drs. Tim & Elizabeth Nawrot: Dylan Vadnais, vocal • Duet Outstanding: Marielle Brodziak: Emi Doerksen & Dylan Vadnais • Festival Theme: Wendy Brook Festival: Shade Clark, piano • Instruments Open: Woodwynn Farm (John & Terry Kubin): Lochlan Kirk • Instruments Open: Woodwynn Farm (John & Terry Kubin): Ken Timanson • Instrument: Solo: Maddigan Chrysler: Roman Kirk • Piano: Betty Hantiuk Memorial: Maxim Rudyk • Piano: Drs.
