Friends of Cantilena on Islay
A group of Islay residents have formed Friends of Cantilena on Islay (FOCI) in order to help promote the ever-popular Cantilena Festival on Islay. 

The group is highly appreciative of the quality of music making provided by Cantilena and their wish is to encourage others both on and off the island to participate in the Festival. 
With this aim in mind, they meet on a regular basis and prepare for the Festival each year, designing and distributing leaflets and posters, informing the media and helping to provide a friendly welcome at the Festival venues. 

The current chair of FOCI is Catherine Wilson.
