Unfortunately Jasmine Bingham only made second place in the Regional voice final. She was on top form and highly praised but was closely challenged by a young lady with a similar programme and style. We were convinced that Jasmine had the edge but the judges thought otherwise. It did take them an hour to reach a conclusion so it was obviously a close run thing.
In the instrumental section our District gained a second with Daniel Pengelli on the flute, beaten by some incredible Shostakovich on the Cello by Oliver Simpson from District 1090. Annie McCrystal also from District 1145 gave a fine performance on the piano.
In fact all contestants gave a good account of themselves and it as a very satisfactory afternoon.
