Awards for Young Musicians

Giving talent a chance

15 Award winners offered places in National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain

We would like to offer our huge congratulations to the 15 current/recent AYM Award winners who have been selected to join the 2016 National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain.  Amongst those offered places were Georgie (viola) and Marie (flute) who we have recently featured in the Talent Tales section of the website.

Fourteen young musicians were offered positions within the orchestra and one Award winner, Laura, was offered one of only seven NYO composer positions. With her pianist hat on, Laura recently performed in our most recent Brilliante fundraising concert, alongside Elodie (violin), who also gained a place in NYO. You can read more about this funraising event here.
