Hazel Wins Place in Prestigious National Youth Orchestra 

Congratulations to Hazel C (V, MSH), who has successfully auditioned and been awarded a place for clarinet in the prestigious National Youth Orchestra. 

Each year, the talented musicians of the National Youth Orchestra begin their journey in October, continuing through to August. 
 
With over 40 days of live activity, including three intensive residencies and three nationwide tours, this prestigious programme offers an incredible opportunity for Hazel. 
 
Hazel said: “I am incredibly honoured to have been offered a place in the National Youth Orchestra. It has been a long-time goal and I am truly grateful for all the support from school that helped make it possible.” 
 
Well done Hazel and we look forward to watching some of the amazing performances you will be performing in over the coming year.
