Outstanding Achievement for Oban! 🎶🏆
Oban once again reached the final of the ISA Young Musician of the Year Award, held at St Hilda’s College, Oxford University. The competition was incredibly tough, with all finalists performing at a phenomenal standard.
Oban captivated the audience with a technically demanding and beautifully expressive piece that transported everyone to the streets of Brazil, so moving that you could have heard a pin drop! He was awarded the Judges Award, receiving praise for his confidence, skill and impressive performance development.
Being selected as a finalist from across all Independent Schools in the UK is an amazing achievement, but to receive the Judges Award makes this success truly special. Well done, Oban! 👏🎵
