In previous years we have presented a concert featuring winners of the Windsor and Maidenhead Symphony Orchestra's Young Musicians Competition.  These have included Martin James Bartlett (piano) who went on to win BBC Young Musician 2014, and Euan Miller (oboe) who was a finalist in the BBC Young Musician Competition 2021, having won the Woodwind class.

This year our Rising Stars are Daisy Harrison (flute) and Maya Crawford-Phillips (violin).  

They'll be accompanied by Anita d'Attellis piano

Tickets: Free, including tea and home-made cakes.  There will be a collection in support of the Dr Turnbull Fund.

This concert is now full and we can't add any more audience. We are operating a waiting list:  Send an email to info@maidenheadmusicsociety.org giving your name, phone number and the number of audience members in your party. We'll add your name to an audience waiting list and will let you know if spaces become available.
