Grand Final Performances

The competition reaches its climax as three musicians perform in the grand final. With such spectacular talent on show, who will the judges choose as their winner?

From the several hundred who entered, just three exceptional young musicians remain as the competition that has launched some of the biggest names in classical music reaches its climax.

Star saxophonist and broadcaster Jess Gillam, herself a finalist in 2016, presents the grand final concert from the stage, filmed at the transformed and reborn Bristol Beacon. Joining Jess for the final are the 2024 麻豆社 Young Musician judges: award-winning trumpet player and former finalist Alison Balsom, chart-topping pianist Alexis Ffrench and multi-instrumentalist and conductor Hannah Catherine Jones.

In the final, the musicians perform a concerto of their choice with the 麻豆社 National Orchestra of Wales and award-winning conductor Ben Gernon. With such spectacular talent on show, the judges have a huge call to make at the end of another compelling competition. One of the finalists is named 麻豆社 Young Musician 2024 and takes their place alongside a stellar list of previous winners and finalists.
