Following the rounds before half-term, we had a very encouraging Senior Music Festival Final on Thursday 3 March, with performances of a high standard in every category. We have always been blessed with very good musicians at school but over the past few years there has been an increase in the number of pupils who are reaching a really advanced level, and this was very much in evidence with advanced concert repertoire featuring throughout the evening. Our adjudicator was Christina Thomson Jones, a highly experienced festival adjudicator and ABRSM examiner. She spoke warmly about all the performances and was very impressed by the standard.
The winners of the categories were as follows:
Piano – Emily
Brass – Freddie
Strings – Grace
Boys’ Singing – Kit
Woodwind – Rachael with Miranda highly commended
Guitar – James with Hugo highly commended
Girls’ Singing – Sophie with Beth and Maddy highly commended
The winner of the Senior Music Festival Prize for this year was Rachael Green.
