The winner of the PwC Jersey Young Musician of the Year 2024 has been announced.

Six finalists took to the stage in Victoria College's Great Hall on Saturday evening (24 February).

Cosimo Dhami-Hounsome won the title after his expressive and technically astute flute performance.

Alongside the coveted trophy, Cosimo was also given a £1,000 cash prize to support his music studies.

Dr Graham Cox, Principal of Jersey's Music Service, said: "I think the quality of young musicians is really quite remarkable and something we should be very proud of."

The competition is in its 32nd year and was adjudicated by Siân Derry, Assistant Director of Postgraduate Studies at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.
