Philharmonia Orchestra's Martin Musical Scholarship Fund, administered by the Philharmonia Orchestra, has given invaluable support to countless young musicians since 1968. Its anonymous founder and benefactor provided enough money to enable exceptionally talented students to bridge the difficult gap between full-time study and professional status. Many Martin Music Scholarship Fund award winners have gone on to extremely successful orchestral or solo careers with names such as Natalie Clein, Nigel Kennedy, Freddy Kempf, Steven Isserlis and Jennifer Pike forming part of the Fund's alumni.

Suzannah Watson has recently graduated from the Royal College of Music with a first class honours degree winning the The Edward & Helen Hague Senior Woodwind Prize for 2012 and the All Flutes Plus flute prize in both 2011 and 2012. During her time here, she studied flute under Jaime Martin, Sue Thomas and piccolo with Christopher Green and has played principal flute with all major ensembles within the college, a particular highlight being performing Bruckner under the baton of Bernard Haitink.

Alongside being selected for the English National Opera Orchestra sit in scheme earlier this year, she has also performed in ENO Baylis and Opera works projects. A keen chamber musician, she was invited to represent the RCM in the 2011 Harmos Festival in Portugal with her wind quintet, at the Elgar Rooms, Royal Albert Hall with the Borealis septet and with various ensembles at the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square. Prior to entering the RCM, Suzannah attended the Junior Guildhall School of Music and Drama between 2006 and 2008, winning the Topwind flute scholarship and performing a concerto at St. Martin in the Fields with the Brandenburg Sinfonia during this time. Other solo performances include a recital in Rachmaninov Hall at the Moscow Conservatory in August 2012.

Suzannah has been accepted onto the Master of Arts course at the Royal Academy of Music so is looking forward to continuing her studies as a postgraduate student in September and is very grateful for the support that she has received from the Philharmonia Orchestra/ Martin Musical Scholarship Fund and the Countess of Munster Musical Trust.
