Congratulations to Dulwich Musician of the Year Junior School Winner Carla Q!
The results are in! The Dulwich Musician of the Year competition results have been announced and we are proud to celebrate that Dulwich College Beijing’s very own Carla Q from Year 6 has tied for first place in the Junior School division!
As the winner of last year’s DCB Junior School Young Musician of the Year competition, Carla was nominated to compete in the finals for the Dulwich-wide competition this year in the Junior School division. There were 26 competitors from 6 Dulwich schools who submitted very high quality recorded performances for adjudication. This year’s judge was Australian composer and instrumentalist Paul Jarman, who had a very difficult decision on his hands! The competitors were judged on a 100-point rubric and not a single competitor scored less than 94 points, so the competition was indeed fierce. With a score of an impressive 99 points, Carla took the lead and tied with another incredible musician from Dulwich Singapore.
Carla worked tirelessly to prepare a beautiful piece for the competition. She performed Sonata Number 12 in E minor by Niccolò Paganini, and what an incredible performance it was. Congratulations to Carla! DCB is so proud of you!
