\nOn Tuesday night seventy-five members of Vocal Ensemble performed alongside the Arts Unit Symphony Orchestra and guest artist\u00a0Casey Donovan, taking centre stage in a choir of seven hundred\u00a0voices from throughout NSW. The concert was a huge success, receiving a standing ovation.<\/p>\n

New Commission from composer Luke Byrne<\/strong>
\nOn Wednesday morning the Wind Ensemble sightread a brand new Australian composition, jointly commissioned by the Fort Street IMP and Sydney Secondary IMP from Sydney composer Luke Byrne.\u00a0This piece is for bands at the level of our Wind Orchestra, to\u00a0address the need for inspiring repertoire (especially Australian repertoire) at this level. The movement worked on by Wind Ensemble on Wednesday is a sizzling Balkan-inspired dance. The students loved the work, and it will be a significant contribution to the repertoire. Hopefully we will hear this wonderful new work performed in Eisteddfods, Band Festivals and concerts in the coming years.\u00a0The Wind Orchestra will perform the whole work at the IMP End of Year Concert in December.<\/p>\n
