Young Musician of the Year 2016

Blimey a lot of repeat offenders!

Not keen on the two presenter model.

I wondered if the oriental looking boy had Marfans. He had very long fingers. Julian is an advert for sending your child to a school. Sounding 50 when you are 17 is sad. Some beautifully played music but not been wowed yet

[annandale]

Urgh hate the two presenters more and more 'the thing is Clemmie....'

Didn't like Julian's playing two years ago but loved it this time.

I like the wee boy playing Mozart

[2rebecca]

Husband who is musical likes the wee boy and the Chinese girl best. I thought she was overdoing the "feeling the music" and looked a bit hammy.

[2rebecca]

We like the wee boy best. Why didn't they talk about his school? They said very little about him

[2rebecca]

Long fingered slightly odd boy wins. Surprised by that

[annandale]

A bit surprised too, though he was good.

I'm sure that YMOTY contestants used to be a bit more, erm, ordinary.

[Katisha]

We thought the first boy was the best, but maybe things come over differently in the actual hall.

[NewLife4Me]

Rapidly.

I thought one of the judges repeated the same thing for each one.
dd has her eye on the trophy.
Two more from their school next week. Hope you had a nice holiday and hopefully see you soon, if she decides to come home Fridays.
