The Nancy Carr Prize

Thanks to the generosity of the Carr family and friends, the Cossington Concert Trust is establishing an annual Nancy Carr Prize in her memory. The inaugural competition will take place at the Manor on Sunday 3 October at 2.30pm. The candidates for the prize will be drawn from past winners of awards from our Fund for Young Musicians.

The Prize will comprise two parts: a financial award of £500 to the winner and the opportunity to give a Manor Music Room Recital durign the following season, for which a further £200 will be available as a fee to an accompanist.

This year the competition will be judged by Jack Liebeck and Victoria Sayles. Seating in the Manor Music Room is limited, with parents of the candidates and donors to the Fund given first priority. A tea party will follow the announcement of the winner.
