We are proud to share that Ismael, a current Rugby School student and music scholar, has reached the semi final of BBC Songs of Praise Chorister of the Year in the senior category.

Formerly a St Paul’s Chorister, Ismael continues to develop his musicianship across the School. Alongside his singing, he plays the trombone, cello and jazz piano; performing in musical theatre productions, orchestra, choirs, rock bands and with the Rugby Choristers at Bilton Grange.

We wish Ismael every success as he prepares for the semi final and will share broadcast dates in due course.
