GOLDEN Hands Junior Ensemble left adjudicator Belinda Mikhail “tingling all over” on Tuesday afternoon, as the group performed at the 32nd biennial Music Festival at the Naparima Bowl, San Fernando.
Their performance of the gospel song, You Raised me up, arranged by Vanessa Headley and conducted by her mother Franka Hills-Headley, so moved Mikhail that she awarded them 92 points which, by her own admission, was the highest points she awarded in the festival thus far.
The British Federation adjudicator, who is on her first overseas festival in Trinidad, commended the band which was the only ensemble to compete in the Junior Instrumental Ensemble in the 19 and under category, saying their masterful delivery and cohesion as a unit left her “tingling all over.”
