What a wonderful turnout to celebrate the beginning of what I understand is the 12th
00:11
anniversary of this wonderful festival. Festival of the people, festival of the amateurs,
00:24
the lovers of the arts as well as the professionals. This is a great city for the arts,
00:34
known throughout the country for its music, its poetry, its drama, its artistry,
00:45
the Palant House and the Ox Market and it is thrilling to know that people such as you
00:54
and people in the past and in the future are ready to support this. We all have a talent,
01:06
some of us have more than one and we have an obligation to recognise that talent, to nourish it
01:16
with the help of mentors sometimes who spot in us a seed of something that is worth nourishing
01:29
and sometimes they provide the opportunities for it to flourish. In this wonderful city
01:41
which celebrates and is joyous in the knowledge of its artistic productions,
01:55
we have among the people, people of great talent and we must honour that, encourage it
02:07
and this is a time so to do. So those of us who are, not those of us, but those of you
02:21
who are shy about acknowledging your talent, come out, enjoy it, celebrate it, share it with us.
02:32
We will make many discoveries. I wish a great success on yet another remarkable Chichester
02:46
festival.
