A YOUNG musician from Prince Henry’s Grammar School in Otley has received an award for outstanding musical talent. Year Eight student Taya Tur plays piano, drums and violin and will receive a means-tested grant of up to £2000 to pay for musical costs such as instruments, equipment, music lessons and travel, plus support tailored to individual circumstances. The award is given by Awards for Young Musicians who help young people with exceptional musical potential. AYM received a record number of eligible applications for its awards programme this year. Many former award winners have achieved great success in their musical careers, such as Jess Gillam who is now AYM’s youngest patron, Julian Bliss, Sean Shibe, Gavin Higgins, Duncan Ward and BBC Young Musicians winners Jennifer Pike and Martin James Bartlett.
