Just as the concerts are so greatly appreciated and enjoyed by Mull residents it is good to see how much the young artists also enjoy their time on Mull. That shines through very clearly. We are happy to contribute to the ongoing presence of an event that is so important to the cultural life of the island, while supporting the next generation of performing musicians.

The Mendelssohn on Mull Experience is captured in three short films made between 2021 and 2023
