Recipients are rewarded financially and will perform at Guild or City events during the coming year.  Hannah's recent triumph follows her solo performance in the Bristol Beacon Main Hall during the Bristol Schools' Gala Concert. Accompanied by the Bristol Youth Orchestra, her rendition of Bruch's 'Romanze' was a spellbinding moment, marking a significant milestone in her musical journey.  In the coming months, Hannah is set to grace the stage at the prestigious BBC Proms once again as a part of the esteemed National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain. Additionally, following her upcoming A Level exams, she will move to Manchester to take a place at the renowned [Royal Northern College of Music](https://www.rncm.ac.uk/).  Congratulations to Hannah on this remarkable achievement! We wish her the very best for her upcoming exams.  Photo credit: Giulia Spadafora / [Soul Media](https://www.soul-media.co.uk/) Date Posted: 15 May, 2024 [Share](http://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/city-waits-award-for-hannah) ## Articles for: Sixth Form, Music ![Year 13 students win National title at the British Physics Olympiad Awards](https://news.redmaidshigh.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/1-3.png?width=770&name=1-3.png) **Year 13 students win National title at the British Physics Olympiad Awards** Date Posted: 26 April, 2024 Yesterday, Catherine, Daisy and Sarah, in Year 13, won a National Award at the British Physics Olympiad Awards.
