From the Music Department

Congratulations to…

… Chapel Choir and ForeShore who performed at the Festival of Lessons and Carols on Monday evening. It was a beautiful service and a wonderful way to begin the festivities of Christmas. Thank you to Mr Wels, Mr Griffiths, Mr Cody-Osborne and Mr Fox for their support and direction of the music.

… All students who performed in studio concerts these past few weeks. There have been an array of performances demonstrating the hard work of so many students. Thank you to the tutors and Mrs Hicks for all of their work with the students.

…Joel G who performed on trombone with the Sydney Wind Symphony last Sunday. The concert included a world premiere of Anne Cawrse’s Marimba Concerto, Dare to Declare.

… and thank you to the parents who donated during the Summer Twilight Concerts directly to Engaruka School fundraiser in Tanzania, a school that was built in honour of a Shore student who was an organ scholar in 2017, Marcus Morris. In addition to those donations, we also raised approximately $685 from the BBQ’s that the Music staff and Music Committee held.

Thank you

On behalf of the Music Department, I would like to thank everyone for their contribution to Music over the past year. Your support is greatly appreciated. We wish everyone a safe and merry Christmas.
