Winter Music Soirée

On a chilly evening on Wednesday, 11th June, the Winter Music Soirée brought a heart-warming celebration of student musical talent. Families, friends, and faculty gathered in the theatre to enjoy a diverse line-up of ensembles showcasing the impressive progress of our young musicians.

The event featured performances from our beginner, intermediate, and senior ensembles, each demonstrating dedication and growth through their carefully rehearsed pieces.

The soirée not only provided an opportunity for music performance but also fostered a strong sense of community within the school. We congratulate all students and their instrumental music teachers for their hard work and commitment throughout Semester 1, making the night one to remember. 

A big thankyou to Ben Dewhirst, Caerwen Martin, Cristy Savage, Leah Zilberman, Paul Dunn, Ralema Fairhead, Theodore Pike and Tim Phillips for their support and guidance with the instrumental music students.

Special thanks to Benjamin Levy-Chang, Jonty Law, and Gwen Gaggiano for their leadership in their role as music captains and for helping to MC the evening. 

Finally, thank you to the music students who volunteered their time as front-of-house ushers, technical assistants, and stagehands on the night.

We're looking forward to more musical performances in Semester 2!
