Instrumental Music Program
Welcome back IMP!
Many Covid-19 restrictions have now been lifted and it is wonderful be able to make music together again. The music ensembles are now working towards our virtual end of year concert.
Congratulations to the Saxophone Quartet (Jack Coleman, Phoebe Lim, Eleanor McLeod, & Liam Young) who won Best Emerging Ensemble in the national Musica Viva chamber music competition: Strike a Chord. They have won a shopping spree of sheet music and a commission of a new work for the group. This shows the strength of the IMP special ensemble grants program.
Chamber Choir Term 3 Recording
While choirs were shut down in term 3, our amazing Chamber Choir members took part in an isolation recording project featuring current chamber choir members, recently retired Year 12 members, and professional vocalist Sefa Laga’aia. Together they recorded Swimming Over London by Bob Chilcott. Every part you can hear was rehearsed and recorded separately, and the final product was mixed by our IMP choral conductor Alex Pringle. Congratulations to the Chamber Choir who, despite the restrictions, continued to make music. CLICK HERE to listen to this stunning recording.
