The Junior School Music Festival
This year’s St Benedict's Junior School Music Festival was adjudicated by Philip O’Meara: composer, producer, arranger and performer.
Having heard around 80 performances from Junior School musicians aged 7 to 11 throughout the week, on strings, woodwind, brass, piano, guitar, percussion and voice, Mr O’Meara had the difficult task of deciding the cup winners at the Finalists’ Concert. This took place on Wednesday, May 1st in the Junior School Hall, and all the children performed their pieces with confidence, polish and style.
