Young Musician Strikes Gold

9th Jun 2026

We are delighted to celebrate the outstanding achievement of a Primary 4 pupil at Feis Ceoil in Dublin, Ireland’s premier classical music competition. Competing in the Junior Cello (Under 9) category, the pupil was awarded both the prestigious Aisling Drury Byrne Cup and a Gold Medal.  His expressive and confident performance of 'Lullaby' and 'Hungarian Dance' captivated the adjudicators, reflecting remarkable dedication, talent and a true love of music. This is a wonderful accomplishment and we are extremely proud of his success.
