The best classical, opera, country and rock music sang out to locals at a festival last weekend.
Wrotham Music Festival returned for its fifth year , bringing four days of entertainment in the summer sung.
Things kicked off a Monkey Music event teaching toddlers some of the arts in Wrotham's village hall.
There was then an afternoon recital of Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf and by an orchestra featuring pupils from Walthamstow Hall in Sevenoaks.
Over the following days there were performances from local musicians including The Barnyard Rebellion, while country violin duo Fiddlit performed.
Shows were held in pubs such as The Rose and Crown and outside in West House garden, where an opera performance closed the weekend.
Musical director Nick Castell said: “I think this was the best festival we have had yet in the village. We are already planning and booking acts for 2020. Many thanks to all those who worked over the weekend to make the events happen and to our sponsors."
