TALENTED musicians from across the borough hit all the right notes at Oldham Music Centre’s third annual summer music festival.

The glorious weather yesterday meant the whole of Newman College was used for the event, in which people of all ages turned out to showcase their musical talent.

From brass bands to pop and rock, there was something for all those who came to support youngsters performing at the Chadderton school.

It proved to be an entertaining day, with arts and crafts stalls, wall climbing and even music workshops for the tots.

Steph Murphy, from OMC, said: “It’s lovely to see the parents supporting the children. It’s nice that it’s across the whole school, both inside and out.

“It makes you feel relaxed and the atmosphere today is one of the nicest we have had.”
