On the Move Concert

Capital Theatre, Bendigo on Thursday 20 July

12 students from Years 7 & 8 went to hear a concert presented by an orchestra of about 100 performers, with students and teachers from several local secondary schools. This concert was the final event in a three-day workshop where musicians from Orchestra Victoria tutored and inspired our local students.

It was a most impressive concert, with ten pieces from a grand opera overture to a James Bond movie theme and Lord of the Dance Celtic music. Everything was played superbly with the big sound of a full symphony orchestra. The conductor was Dominic Harvey who regularly conducts Orchestra Victoria.

Students from Castlemaine Secondary College who played in the orchestra were: Isadora Anderson, Gracie Carroll, Eva & Palmira Demaria O'Sullivan, Uma Dingemans, Emmanuel & Eli Hall, Declan Kennedy, Alex Marney, Lloyd Meadows, Dante Michielin and Danielle Rodier. Between them our students played a wide range of instruments: violin, viola, cello, trumpet, trombone and percussion. Wendy Laidler, our brass teacher, played horn in the orchestra and supported our students during the workshop.

Congratulations to these students for their hard work over the three days. Thank you to Anthony van Emmerik.
