The Rotary Club of Great Dunmow has crowned the winners of its fifth annual Young Musician Competition.

The competition was held at Helena Romanes School on Saturday, November 9, and featured singers, pianists and a violinist.

Singers performed a range of songs including 'I Dreamed a Dream', 'Voilà', I Have Nothing', 'If I Ever Loved You' and 'My Soul is Stolen'.

The instrumentalists played music ranging from Tchaikovsky to Jerry Lee Lewis.

The overall instrumental winner was Ankhan on piano, but the judges - professional musicians Philip Sunderland and James Cairns - could not split the singing finalists so made Mariia and Thomas joint winners.

The Rotary Club thanked Helena Romanes School for the venue and Empire Pianos for the use of the piano.
