Student performers take home awards and give excellent performances at this year’s COBIS Music Festival in Madrid.

Overall, the BSN finished in second place, with students earning awards in the following categories:
- Upper School Vocal Soloist – 1st place
- Lower School Piano Soloist – 1st place
- Overall Student Prize – 1st place
- Upper School Vocal Ensemble – 2nd place

A BSN Senior Student’s original composition Painting was also chosen as the winner of the Composition Competition and named the “Anthem for COBIS”. The festival came to a close with a performance of this piece, with the student conducting the orchestra and choir.
Thank you to all the students and the music staff for their dedication and hard work!
