Young Musicians Showcase

Post date: Mar 20, 2013 7:04:20 PM

Well done to students Madeleine Taylor and Ella Burton for their beautiful performances of Daydream by Tchaikovsky and Nalada by Fibich, at the Showcase. Also huge congratulations to Katie Phillips who gave a mature and moving account of Debussy's Cathedrale Engloutie, a Diploma standard piece, from memory. All three students auditioned for the concert in February and worked hard to keep up a great standard of playing to perform in front of a large audience at St Wilfrid's Church on Saturday. Well done team!

Haywards Heath Music Society, who promote professional classical music in the area as well as running the Showcase, were so impressed with Katie's performance that she was invited to play at their AGM. Each year they usually choose a promising young musician from the area to give a performance. A huge compliment and testament to Katie's talent and hard work!
