Yehudi Menuhin School

UK-based Yehudi Menuhin School attracts gifted young musicians from across the world to study at the School in Surrey, England.

Founded by Yehudi Menuhin, violinist and conductor in 1963, the School will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary this year and is launching a major fundraising appeal to support two projects.

One of these projects is to build up a bursary endowment fund to support talented musicians from outside the UK who are not eligible to receive any government funding.

Kevin Loh, a classical guitarist currently studying at the school, performed a short recital during the event.
