Multiple Leighton Park Music students have flourished at this year’s Woodley Festival of Music and Arts, particularly in woodwind and other instrumental categories.
Sophie and Leonie (Year 10) clinched joint second in the 16 and Under Recital Class; whilst Alice (Year 10) secured a wonderful first place. Alice commented: “The adjudicator gave some great feedback. I played a great piece, the Berwald concert piece for bassoon and orchestra, with an amazing accompanist, Sally, whom I always love playing with”.
Success continued as Rueben (Year 8) earned himself a fabulous second place in the Under 13 Woodwind Solo category, playing ‘Little Grotesque’ for bassoon by Ryszard Paciorkiewicz and Rebecca (Lower Sixth) bagged first place in her 18 and Under Recital category!
Woodley Festival is held over three weekends in March and comprises five sections – Choral, Instrumental, Pianoforte, Vocal and Speech & Drama. The festival allows students to strengthen their performance confidence, skills and knowledge outside of the classroom and we are very pleased to be able to share and celebrate their successes with our community.
