Congratulations to Michael Choi

Recently Michael Choi (11/FL) competed in the finals of two prestigious Music Competitions – the Kuring-gai Philharmonic (KPO) NSW Secondary Schools Concerto Competition and the Australasian Clarinet Conference Concerto Competition.

It was the 29th KPO concerto competition this year. Out of 100 entrants, Michael was one of six finalists chosen to play in the Finals concert with the Kuring-gai Philharmonic Orchestra, thus giving students the opportunity to play with an orchestra – often for the first time. Michael performed the difficult Copland Clarinet Concerto with much flair and maturity.

Following on from the KPO competition, Michael won the Under 18 division of the Australasian Clarinet Conference Concerto Competition. With students competing from across Australia and New Zealand, this is a significant achievement by Michael and one in which all of the Newington community congratulates him on.
