Last week the Music Department held the annual Interset Music Competition with Mr Tim Byard Jones adjudicating.   The standard of music was exceptionally high and we were treated to a truly fantastic evening of diverse musical talent, all selected by the sets themselves. In his summing up of the event, Mr Byard Jones, who read Music at Queens College, Oxford, where he held a Choral Scholarship, offered his congratulations to all the boys that took part and singled out three particularly talented boys – McKimm, Fan & Salter.  He had a very difficult decision but finally awarded Haig the winners and Drake as runner-up, with 1 point between them.
