Chorleywood Music encourages music making in our local community. It is keen to develop and encourage talented, young performers in our local area and neighbouring counties and holds an annual Young Musicians’ Competition. Chorleywood Music is delighted to present the 2024 event.
The Rickmansworth Young Musician of the Year has been held annually since 1983. It has attracted high calibre students of classical music from a wide area of Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and London.
This prestigious event has been the launch pad for our competitors reaching the finals of the BBC Young Musician Competition and international events and for many of our young performers making careers in music. We particularly welcome minimum level competitors with all entrants receiving valuable assessments of their performances from our panel of expert judges. Finalists gain valuable public performing experience in front of appreciative and supportive audiences.
Don't miss the RYMY competition event on Sunday 17th March 2024 at 2pm.
