Many congratulations to YMS student Aida Lahlou (15) who has just first prize in the Concours International de Piano Son Altesse Royale la Princesse Lalla Meryem, organized every two years in Rabat, Morocco, by the Association les Amitiés Musicales. The competition involves young pianists aged between 10 and 30: Aida was awarded ‘1st Mention unanimously and 1st named’ in her category.
Well done also to Leyla Cemiloglu (16) who competed in the International Franz Liszt Competition for Young Pianists in Weimar, and to Katie Morgan (14) who took part in the International Piano Competition for Young Musicians in Enschede and gained a ‘Mention of Honour’ (as did YMS alumna Rosalind Phang).
Well done to them all.
