Music Committee 2023<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The music committee is a group of five students, each holding an individual role associated with a type of ensemble at SCEGGS. Starting from last week, over the next few weeks, each member of the committee will share a little bit about themselves and why they love music! This week, Teagan Barrack (Year 11), our 2023 Band Captain, shares her musical journey.<\/p>\n

My name is Teagan, I\u2019m in Year 11 and I am the Band Captain for 2023! I started playing the clarinet when I was eight years old, and I\u2019ve been in love with it ever since. Before starting at SCEGGS, I also started learning the saxophone to allow myself to play in as many bands as possible once I was in high school. This year, I will be a proud member of the Basie Jazz Band, Holst Wind Ensemble, Woodwind Ensemble and the School Choir. I love the variety of ensembles I can play in at SCEGGS and enjoy spending my mornings, lunchtimes, or afternoons in the DB Centre, making music. I think that the best part about Music is that I can work in a team with all sorts of people from the school to make something beautiful. I\u2019m hoping to see many old and new faces as ensemble rehearsals begin and I\u2019m looking forward to seeing what 2023 will bring for music at SCEGGS!<\/em><\/p>\n

Assembly Pianist Weeks 2 and 3<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Congratulations to Rebecca Colwell (Year 11) who played the hymns and excerpts for “walk-in\/walk-out” in Assembly for Weeks 2 and 3.\u00a0 Rebecca is an accelerated Music 2 student who will be sitting her HSC exam later this year.\u00a0 She has also achieved her L.Mus.A last year.\u00a0 Accompanying the school\u2019s singing of hymns in assembly is a wonderful way for student pianists to extend their skills.\u00a0 There are further opportunities coming ahead for interested pianists to perform.\u00a0 Well done, Rebecca!<\/p>\n
