The team were also selected to perform at the world famous Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, the Evian Music Festival and as part of an Arts festival in Lausanne.
“They really have put Scarborough firmly on the ‘Musical Map’.”
Emmie has hosted many prestigious performances and is said to go “way beyond and above the call of duty on a daily basis. She deserves recognition for being immense”.
