Year 7s have been introduced to traditional Japanese music while simultaneously building foundational keyboard skills through learning popular song arrangements. There has been plenty of enthusiasm around our newest purchase of MIDI keyboards!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Year 9 are learning about the development of the Western orchestra from the 1600s, looking into how historical instrument designs influenced ensemble sound. Meanwhile, Year 10 are analysing orchestral scores from The Lord of the Rings, exploring modes and texture in their new unit, Music for Multimedia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wishing our Year 12 HSC and IB music students the very best as they prepare for their examinations, submissions and performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Froukje Werlemann-Godfrey <\/strong><br>Head of Music 5-12 (Part time)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Veronica Tsang <\/strong><br>Acting Co-Head of Music 5-12<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"767\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17673\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023-767x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023-767x1024.jpg 767w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023-768x1025.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023-112x150.jpg 112w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5023.jpg 1040w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"767\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17675\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022-767x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022-767x1024.jpg 767w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022-768x1025.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022-112x150.jpg 112w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/08\/Year-7-IMG_5022.jpg 933w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Message from the Director of Music<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Click here to find out more about Co-curricular opportunities and Music Performances at Santa Sabina College.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/ssc\/article\/director-of-music-p-12-7\/\">Co-curricular Music \u2013 Message from the Director of Music P-12<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to Year 10 Rock Band Boulevarde 27 on their successful performance at Dom\u2019s Day last Friday amongst all the other performers who self-developed their own artistic contributions.
