Liz was thrilled to share the celebrations at an award dinner on Tuesday 9 May along with SWOYO member George and some of the OpenUp Music team, who have worked so hard to take SWOYO to this point - next step the National Open Youth Orchestra in 2018!

Many thanks go to the University of the West of England for their research support - and special mention to Ian Holmes (conductor and then Director of Performing Arts), Lydbrook Band, UWE Singers and Alison Howell (organ) who were integrally involved in SWOYO's first performance in April 2016.
