Jonathan Hunt, a Sixth Form pupil and Music Scholar, recently won the Katie Ogden Memorial Solo Competition on the trombone whilst residing on a National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain course. A few weeks earlier, Jonathan performed Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No 1 with the school orchestra, demonstrating the diversity and depth of his talent.
Nicholas Smith, Director of Music, said "Even in the holiday period Jonathan maintains an impressive ethic towards his music making and is a talented and hardworking young man. Whilst he has been accepted to read Engineering at Cambridge, he clearly wants to push his musical ability to the hilt and he has been one of the most complete musicians the school has produced for some time".
