For Goldy Solutions the work doesn't stop when the last notes of a competition die away in the memory of those who performed.

Over the last couple of weeks Ian Clowes has been editing the vast bank of brilliant images he took at the recent European Championships in Montreux, so that they are now available to be purchased by players, conductors and supporters alike who wish to obtain a lasting memory of what was a memorable event.
