Music Update 

Interesting music fact: Listening to music helps reduce the release and production of cortisol, which is called “the stress hormone.” Less cortisol means better learning capability and memory, lower blood pressure, heart rate and cholesterol, and a less likely chance of heart disease

End of year virtual concert update

 

The music department have been busy organising a virtual concert as an alternative to our end of year music concert, which unfortunately could not go ahead this year. This concert will showcase a variety of solo and ensemble performances from our music students, who have been working very hard to record their pieces that they learnt in 2021. Stay tuned for the time and date for this exciting event. 

 

Excursion

After another crazy year of remote learning and lockdowns, the EMC music students have been very lucky to be invited to go to the HMAS Cerberus Navy Base to watch the Royal Australian Navy Band perform on Friday 3rd December. Students and staff are very excited to be seeing their first live professional music performance for the year!
