The glorious musical aptitude of our local youngsters is being put to the test once again in the suitable surroundings of a professional recital hall.
The ambiance will befit the occasion at the Regis School of Music in Bognor.
The West Sussex Youth Music Award continues a long-standing tradition of music competitions organised in order to discover and encourage musical talent among young people.
This competition is aimed at talented young musicians in West Sussex who aspire to make music their profession.
This year the Award attracted 20 candidates aged 11 to 18 in six categories: strings, piano, woodwind, brass, vocal and classical guitar. Each candidate had to perform a short programme in front of a panel of adjudicators.
The first round took place at the end of January.
Five outstanding young musicians were chosen by the panel to compete in the final round on March 13.
The panel of adjudicators for the final will be Peter Hewitt
