I am incredibly grateful to have been a beneficiary of the Trust twice, my residencies with the Kent Youth Choir and the National Youth Concert Band of Great Britain otherwise not being possible. This gave me the opportunity to be enriched under the tutelage of top music professionals, as well as to play and sing some fantastic repertoire with other young musicians who are just as passionate about music as I am. To perform live and talk about my KaMYMT journey on BBC Radio Kent was a huge privilege I will never forget, and I strongly encourage young people to apply.
