“The sponsorship of anything to do with the heart, the mind, the spirit and the soul of a child is the most enlightened form of sponsorship. It is a sponsorship that I classify as immeasurable and priceless. When a child picks up a violin and starts to play, that is the beginning of a lifetime of involvement with music at an extraordinary level and that’s what this association is about and what sponsorship of this association reflects, so it is a truly wonderful thing.”
Richard Gill OAM
