David Clover Festival Friends

The David Clover Festival continues to be an event of high standing and credibility in the eyes of discerning musicians in and around the City of Sheffield and nationally. It has also proved itself a worthy vehicle of encouragement and support for young singers; internationally famed singers and teachers have associated themselves with this festival. However, the organisation and administration of this event is increasingly difficult to finance and the City of Sheffield Teachers' Choir is looking towards other musically interested people for help and support.

Sponsorship

Over the years the festival has grown and with it have its expenses. In order to mount further competitions the we need sponsorship, and we invite other interested parties to help in whatever small way they can no matter how small it is. This might be by becoming one of the "David Clover Festival Friends", or it might be by sponsoring the prize money, details of which may be obtained from
