The Culture Council of Poble Nou de Benitachell opens the First Young Musicians Contest. This event aims to boost and acknowledge the daily effort made by the town’s music students to improve their abilities.

The recitals will take place next 24 March at 20:00 h, at the Santa Maria Magdalena church.

The contest is open to all young musicians living in town, who have specialised in an specific instrument, and with ages 10 to 16. The idea is to “motivate students to continue training and to acknowledge their everyday efforts to be better at their instruments; also, to allow them to participate in activities out of the academic context provided by the Music School. The shows will be held next 24 March at 20:00 h, at the Santa Maria Magdalena church.

With this event, young musicians will be able to show their knowledge and mastery of the instrument by playing a work of free choice, for no longer than 6 minutes. Three professional and prestigious professors will make up the jury and will grant the prize to the best performance. Antoni J. Catalá, director of the Music School, declared: “This initiative has been warmly welcome, with around 20 participants registered so far”.

To take part in the contest and for additional information, direct your queries to the Music School of Benitachell.
