It's a great time for audience and performers both. Just want to let people know that there are videos from Princeton up on Youtube where you can enjoy some of the fun from previous festivals and get a taste of what's to come this year. Just search "Princeton Traditional Music Festival" and a wide variety of videos will pop up. Cheers Marian |

Re Et Tu Flute: this is Becky Deryckx and Brad Hurley, flute players from Mount Vernon, WA and Montreal PQ respectively. They both are fine Irish flute players so I'm expecting a great show.
