Diane Widdison, the MU’s National Organiser for Teaching, told CMU: “People often don’t appreciate how isolated instrumental teachers can feel, and these conferences provide an invaluable opportunity for them to make contact with each other as well as a forum to discuss issues that are of importance to them in their work. We hope that the launch of these initiatives will be of a great benefit to musicians who work in education”.
