Jared Benn in Grade 11 entered his final piano graded examination (Grade 8) through Trinity College of Music, London at the end of 2021. As no examiners were sent out to South Africa from London to examine candidates in person, Jared had to make a recording of the material required for his examination and submit it on line. We are very proud of him for achieving his Grade 8 Piano with a mark of 93% which is a Distinction. Achieving this level of playing at the age of 16 is highly commendable and to pass with distinction even more so.
