Isabel writes to thank the Knights as follows:

"I took this summer as a break and spent almost 2 months with my family back in Spain. I still managed to keep up with the bass as I attended the Mittenwald Double Bass Camp with Jeff Bradetich and Lorraine Campet. After some much needed rest I now feel ready and excited for the intense year ahead which includes RCM Wind Ensemble and RCM Philharmonic in October; and also the Cuore Chamber Orchestra in Harrogate and the Fidelio Orchestra at the Milton Court concert Hall in December. Thank you so much for supporting me again this year it has been a real pleasure having the Knights as a donor over the past few months and I am very grateful that you came to all the concerts. Your support means a great deal and it allows me to approach the coming year with confidence and excitement. I very much look forward to seeing you at my performances again. Best wishes Isabel."
