Congratulation to Charlotte Comon,
winner of the Barnes Young Musician of the Year competition.

Now in its third year, the Award looks ahead to the future of musical performance. As well as giving our own young musicians a platform during the Festival, we are also playing our part in sustaining a high quality of musicianship in future generations. Applicants must either live, attend school or have their music lessons in Barnes.
The first BYM took place in 2017 and established a high standard .
The final adjudication - delivered in 2017 by Ralph Allwood and in 2018 by Hilary Davan Wetton - has been as useful for the participants as entertaining and informative for the audience. In 2019 Paul McCreesh lead the adjudication.
Congratulations to Calvin Leung, Piano, Winner of the Barnes Young Musician 2018
Haolin Zhao (violin) won in the 1st group
Andreana Chan (violin) won in the 2nd group
