Two Of Bablake's Musicians Steal The Show

Two of Bablake's talented musicians enjoyed a win in last night's Coventry Rotary Club Young Musician of the Year competition.

Senior baritone Howard Weyman won the 'Vocal' category with a poised performance of 'Non Piu Andrai' ( Mozart),  'Sea Fever' (John Ireland) and 'Some Enchanted Evening' (Rodgers and Hammerstein).

Meanwhile, youngest competitor of the evening Shell Music scholar Harry Scott-Burt won the 'Instrumental' category, playing last. Mr Tim Crompton (Director of Music) was delighted with his piece, saying: "Harry wowed the audience with a superb, assured performance of a movement from a Bach cello suite and 'Tzig Tzig' (William Squire)".

We also wish Harry Scott-Burt all the best for his first National Children's Orchestra concert this weekend and hope to report on this next week.
