Very close this week, but results are in, Nimrod rides on to the group of 4 and another giant falls!
So - you'll win next week - St. Saens or Vivaldi? It's anyone's guess!

Very close still in this week's Warhorse Horse Race, but at this point Elgar has a very slight lead! Beethoven's out. Will Mozart follow?

Shocked and devastated. One of Canada's brightest musical lights. This is a terrible loss.
The impact that Jocelyn Morlock has made on our School, students and music community is immeasurable. We will miss her beautiful spirit, sense of humour and brilliance. We hold Jocelyn’s loved ones in our hearts. She will be deeply missed by all of us.
