Marist Musicians Shine at MSA Leaders Summit Events
On Saturday evening, 17 October, Marist College Ashgrove proudly hosted the Marist Schools Australia Student Leaders Summit Mass and Annual Dinner, with our talented student musicians playing a significant role in the success of both events.
Members of the College Liturgy Choir provided music for the Mass, including cantoring by Hudson Melrose and a beautiful rendition of Salve Regina, which added a reverent and uplifting spirit to the celebration. Special thanks are extended to music staff Ms Alison Braidwood and Ms Melanie Stewart for their contribution to the liturgy and their support of our students.
Following the Mass, the MCA Jazz Combo entertained guests at the MSA Annual Dinner. Their performance was exceptionally well received and served as a wonderful showcase of the talent and dedication of our young musicians.
Congratulations and thank you to Thomas Lynn, Baxter Jordan, Julian Lewis, Harrison Hind, Max McRae and Luke Dwyer for their outstanding performance and for representing the College with such professionalism. Their musicianship was a source of pride for the Marist community and a fitting accompaniment to this significant gathering.
