Pizza slices, cold beers, brownies, lemon drizzle cake and chilled rosé - the perfect classical guitar concert!

The scene at Wimborne St Giles as the concert draws to a close. The wine bottles are empty now; I've come back on for my encore and outside the midsummer evening is glowing. See that plate covered with foil? There were some homemade pizza slices left after the interval and people were stocking up with extra pieces to take home. I confess that there are two such plates in my dressing room (the back kitchen); one with pizza and the other with cake. It was a truly delightful concert experience. Allowing people to bring their own wine and beer is an inspired idea and selling delicious homemade snacks in the interval makes it into a real party. What a great place. That spectacular tapestry you can see on the wall behind me depicts the village, including the cows, black Labradors and hens. You see a bit more detail in the shot below.
