The annual Deveson Music Prize took place yesterday in the school chapel, with varied and energetic performances throughout the day. Spectators were treated to a broad selection of pieces, by composers including Andrew Lloyd Weber and Mozart. The guest adjudicator was Michael Nicholas, who amongst other roles, spent 23 years in the post of Organist and Master of The Choristers at Norwich Cathedral. He commented on the "wonderful entertainment" and "confident performances" of the pupils. Well done to all who took part. View the programme here.
