Music Scholarships help Young Musicians from the Coda Fiddle Orchestra

The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation has supported the Coda Fiddle Orchestra for six years, providing music scholarships for students who have been assessed as showing above average ability.  

The John Thornton Music Scholarships fund one to one music support and violin tuition, together with the cost of instrument maintenance, sheet music and exam fees.  

Isabella Zhang, Wiktoria Walinska, Isabella Lopez, Catherine Lopez, Lewis Hunt and Michelle Tsang were selected for awards this year and JTYAF Trustee, Geoff Beck, was delighted to present the students with their certificates.  

We wish these talented young musicians every success for the future. Isabella Zhang, Wiktoria and  Michelle recently took part in the Rotary Group 2 Young Musician of the Year competition and performed brilliantly.  Well done to you all!
