Alice has played the cello and piano since she was five years old.  Until recently, she was the principal cellist of the Bolton training Strings Orchestra, but has now moved up to the Bolton Junior Youth Orchestra.  She also plays with the top string group, New Century Strings.  Future Talent are proud to have sponsored Alice's cello lessons this year.

Alice is now nearly 13 years old.  In addition to piano and cello also sings, and has attended the Taste of Moreland singing weekend for the past 5 years.  She has recently had the honour of being given the first ever bursary for a pupil moving up from the weekend course to the week-long course.

The fifth of six children, she performs regularly with the Brett Collection, an ensemble made up of members of her extremely musical family. 

"Thank you for awarding me the bursary to cover the cost of me playing the cello for a year.  It is very kind of you and I am very grateful. I will be able to have some new strings put on my cello and I am hoping to do my grade 6 at Easter.
Thank you again for your support. "
