Chamber Choir and Vocal Ensemble in Concert<\/strong>
\nOn Sunday 8thSeptember Chamber Choir and Vocal Ensemble, directed by Alex Pringle, performed in a joint concert with the Sydney Male Choir, at the Sydney Town Hall. The event was a huge success, attended by an audience of\u00a0over nine hundred. Both Chamber Choir and Vocal Ensembleperformed brilliantly in their solo items, and were joined by the Sydney Male Choirto sing Tippet’s Spirituals, and Take Me Home Country Road. The finale of the concert had much of the audience singing along. The\u00a0concert was a\u00a0great testament to the power of community\u00a0music-making, and the love of singing shared by Fort Street and Sydney Male Choir, and the IMP has been overwhelmed by emails from audience members, congratulating the students on their fantastic performances.
\nSydney Male Choir made a sizeable donation to the school following Sunday’s concert, which will fund bursaries for IMP members who require financial assistance\u00a0in\u00a02020.<\/p>\n

Hire instrument servicing\u00a0<\/strong>
\nThis is a friendly reminder that\u00a0hire\u00a0instruments must be\u00a0serviced annually (this is a requirement of hiring that all hirers agree to when completing the hire form). The IMP will be monitoring instrument servicing and upkeep to ensure instruments are kept in good condition so that can be used by future IMP members.
\nIf your hire\u00a0instrument hasn’t been serviced in the past 12 months please attend to this ASAP. There is a list of recommended instrument service and repair businesses, in the\u00a0IMP Membership Handbook<\/a>. In some cases you may need to book in for a service (especially at peak times such as school holidays).<\/p>\n

Tour 2021<\/strong>
\nThe IMP\u00a0will be touring to Spain and Portugal in 2021.
\nStudents who will be in Years 10-12 in 2021 are eligible to attend. In limited circumstances students who will be in Year 9 in\u00a02021 may be invited to join the tour,\u00a0subject to availability of places and the instrument\u00a0needs of tour ensembles.
\nInterested parents and students should attend an information meeting on Monday 23 Septemberin the Hall. Geoff Hayes from Hayes Travel Enterprises will present the proposed itinerary, and Mr Manchester will talk about touring in general, and some of the school requirements, and to answer any questions you may have.\u00a0It is very important that families and students who are interested in this tour attend the information evening.<\/p>\n
