Congratulations to S2 pupil Ben Drake who has got into the NYO Inspire Wind Ensemble this year.  This project is open to students aged 13-19, at Grade 6 standard or above. The philosophy behind NYO Inspire is simple: to give breakthrough experiences of orchestral music to teenagers of all backgrounds, both as musicians and as audience members.

Ben also has been invited to play with the Grampian Youth Orchestra on their 2016 Summer Tour.  They will be performing in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany.

An exciting year ahead for Ben.
