The competition included candidates up to the age of seventeen from Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire and Northamptonshire. It included eight instrumentalists, three ensembles and eight vocalists.
Our contestants were Theo Jenkins, Effie Bowman, Oliver and Samuel Pope representing the Rotary Clubs of Ashby de la Zouch. Our entrants performed extremely well. Sam playing the Tuba won the Senior Instrumentalist. Effie won the Intermediate section playing the Harp. Both candidates have been chosen to represent the District in the Regional Final which takes place on the 9th March at the Wolverhampton Music School.
