Rotary Young Musician
Rotary Young Musician is an annual event with local heats leading to a national final. In March 2011 local schoolgirl, Emilia Palmer, represented Wreake Valley Rotary Club in the Junior Solo Instrumental (age 6 to 10 years) section. She performed Now Hear This! and Dances from Szeged on her clarinet. Although she did not win Emilia performed very well in what was a high class field of musicians. The event was won by a cellist representing Loughborough Rotary Club. As well as the junior soloist competition there are competitions for a Junior Group, Junior Ensemble Instrumental, Junior Choir and the same categories for the intermediate (11-13 years) and senior (14-17 years) competitions. If you are a local young musician and would like to be considered for the competition please do get in touch with us!
