“Firstly, I wish to thank Citi TV for taking a great giant step and organizing this fantastic group breaking initiative. My impression so far of the competition is that there is a lot of potentials for the children to become great musicians. From melodic and stylistic interpretations and presentation, the competition is on and assuredly the best is yet to come. There is definitely more room for improvement given the candid comments, advice and guidance. I encourage parents, teachers, family and friends to support these children. I believe as the competition progresses the bar will only go higher”
