Piano prodigy Max Davidoff-Grey has won a place at the acclaimed Purcell School of Music. Max, 14, joins Purcell in September in a move which he describes as a dream come true.
Based in Bushey, Hertfordshire, the Purcell School is a boarding school for young musicians. Funded predominantly by the government, the school was awarded the Unesco Mozart Gold Medal in recognition of its contribution to music, education and international culture.
How does he feel? "Absolutely fantastic," Max, a former pupil at Parmiter's School in Watford, tells People. "It was just a dream before my teacher Michael Harvey decided I was ready to audition. Now it has become a reality and I still can't believe it."
