Young Musician of the Year

Young Musician of the Year 2025

 

The competition is open to all! Any instrument, any style. Please encourage your son/daughter to apply if they have an enjoyment of playing a musical instrument. This is a fantastic platform/opportunity for pupils to experience performing in a competitive environment and take pride in their musical ability.

 

This year, we have changed things slightly – there are 3 categories:

  • Grade 1-2 category
  • Grade 3-4 category
  • Grade 5 and above category

 

Auditions will take place in March before the Easter holidays. Once pupils have submitted their application slip and accompaniments, a Google Classroom will be created and a copy of the audition schedule will be posted.

The slip at the bottom of the application form must be given to Miss McDonald by Friday 7th March along with a copy of piano accompaniments if pieces are accompanied.

 

The auditions will take place the week beginning Monday 17th March.

 

The final will take place the week beginning 26th May 2025. The date for this is TBC as this needs to be confirmed with the venue. We are looking at holding the final in a local church to allow pupils the opportunity to perform in a beautiful acoustic with a grand piano. As soon as this is confirmed, this information will be communicated with the chosen finalists and also posted on the Google Classroom.

After the audition process has taken place, the finalists will be informed with the plans for rehearsals in the run up to the performance.
