Music

We are fast approaching the end of Term 3 and for our Year 12 music students that means their HSC practical exams are fast approaching. The Year 12 students will be presenting a variety of performances and musicology viva voces to external examiners over 3 days, covering Music 1, Music 2 and Music Extension. We wish our students the best of luck over these days. At the same time our Year 11 students are preparing for their end of year assessments before progressing into Year 12.

 

Since the start of the year we have had a number of students attending Junior Band on a Tuesday morning. These students have been dedicated to learning their instruments and are producing a nice, combined sound together. From the beginning of Term 4, junior band members will be invited by the music teachers to begin attending concert band. The Jazz Band continues to rehearse and develop also. This is a smaller group for more experienced players, and students are invited to join by the music teachers. It is wonderful to see so many students actively involved in music at McCarthy.
