The quest to find the Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year 2012 begins in January, when details of how to enter will be posted on the Scottish Jazz Federation website.

Prizes include £1000 cash, gigs at Glasgow and London jazz festivals, and a full-length feature in JazzUK, the jazz magazine with the widest circulation in the UK. You can read about the 2011 winner, Ruaridh Pattison, in the Jazz Features section and if you fancy having something similar written about you, enter the competition and blow the judges away.
