Part 3: A talented young musician 
One of Chetham’s most successful young musicians is Peter Moore.
I’m Peter Moore. I’m fourteen-years-old, and I study music at Chetham’s. 
 
I play the trombone, and in 2008 I won the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition, which was a fantastic 
experience and a real honour to win. 
Peter was only twelve-years-old when he won the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition. This is a very 
important national competition for musicians under eighteen. One of the competition judges was Nicola Benedetti. 
Peter comes from a very musical family. 
Music was very important when I was young. My parents were both professional musicians, and I grew up listening to 
music all the time.
 
My mum and dad were both horn players in orchestras, and my brother plays the trumpet, and my sister plays the 
piano.
Peter was interested in music from a very young age.
I first started to read music when I was about six-years-old.
 
My dad started teaching me trombone when I was seven-years-old. And I started playing the piano a year after that.
Today Peter lives in Manchester with his family, but he wasn’t born here.
I was born in Northern Ireland and moved over to Manchester when I was eight. 
 
I started at Chetham’s when I was nine in 2005. 
Life at Chetham’s can be hard work, but Peter enjoys it. And he doesn’t play the trombone all the time.
