This special showcase concert celebrates the winners of the Brownlee and Hildyard Instrument Prizes.

Our students will be performing on a selection of fine string instruments generously gifted and loaned to the Bate Collection of Musical Instruments by the Brownlee and Hildyard families.

These instruments, awarded following a successful audition, provide students with the opportunity to develop their skills and bring these remarkable instruments to life.
