Fort Street students perform at the Sydney Opera House in In Concert<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Opera House Concert Hall was filled with the voices of around 1,000 public high school students at In Concert<\/em> on Wednesday, 3 June. Fort Street students were strongly represented in the NSW Public Schools Combined Secondary Choir, as well as in all other NSW Public Schools ensembles performing on the night, including the Symphony Orchestra, String Ensemble, Symphonic Wind Ensemble, Jazz Orchestra, and Senior Singers (conducted by Fort Street High School\u2019s own Emily Irvine).<\/p>\n

It was a joyful concert, with one of the highlights being three excerpts from Gabriel Faur\u00e9\u2019s Requiem in D minor – <\/em>an amazing feat given that the students in the massed choir and orchestra had only met each other for the first time earlier that day. The guest artist was Lucy Durack, an inspiration to the students and one of Australia\u2019s most respected musical theatre performers, known for roles such as Glinda in Wicked<\/em> and Elle Woods in Legally Blonde: The Musical<\/em>. All performances were of exceptionally high quality, and the audience left inspired.<\/p>\n
