Live Orchestra Experience
Students in Year 10 and 11 Music classes, were treated to an unforgettable excursion to the ICC (International Convention Centre) Theatre in Sydney to watch
Top Gun: Maverick, Live Orchestra Experience with a spectacular twist.
Instead of a traditional screening, students experienced the film accompanied by a live orchestra, bringing the adrenaline-pumping soundtrack to life in real-time.
This unique event perfectly complemented the Film Music topic currently being studied in class. By witnessing how live orchestration enhances emotion, tension, and action on screen, students were able to deepen their understanding of how music shapes cinematic storytelling. From the soaring electric guitar riffs of the iconic Top Gun theme, to the subtle underscore in dramatic scenes, the performance offered a powerful demonstration of music’s role in Film.
The excursion was both educational and inspiring, providing students with a rare opportunity to see professional musicians performing in sync with a blockbuster film. It offered a deeper appreciation of the behind-the-scenes artistry that goes into creating memorable movie moments.
We look forward to the next musical experience with our students.
