The final of BBC Young Musician is tonight (and I'm lucky to have tickets :))
The semi-final was superb, I found it almost impossible to pick a "winner". It was a shame that the violinist didn't get through, although I admit to being a little biased when it comes to strings. It's going to be interesting with both a percussionist and recorder player performing concertos. The audience and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra are in for a treat I think. The pianist was a bit OTT in gestures and lacking in emotional depth IMO. My money is on the percussionist.
Who do people think will walk away with the trophy?
