On the first day of the summer term, the Music Department hosted the inaugural Classical Musician of the Year Competition. 

It was open to all pupils playing to a Grade 5+ standard in five categories: piano, string, voice, woodwind and brass.  We were delighted to welcome the pianist, song specialist, chamber musician and vocal coach Libby Burgess, to adjudicate the day.  Libby spent the day listening to pupils from all year groups before the ten finalists were announced later that afternoon. 

Many congratulations to the category winners: Mia (piano), Matthew (brass), Maisie (woodwind), Fleur (string) and Katy (voice and overall winner).  We very much look forward to this being a regular event in the calendar.
