Harmony Vocals with Cindy Frost at the All State Jazz Festival

All State Jazz Festival

 

Harmony Vocals, NHS Stage Band and Jazz Orchestra all competed at the inaugural All State Jazz Festival at St. Leonard’s College, Brighton last weekend. 

 

It was heart-warming to see so many young musicians from around Victoria enjoy and share their love of jazz again. 

 

A big thank you to Cindy Frost, Tessa Bodenham and Ros Jones for their dedication to their respective ensembles. Well done and congratulations to all members of the fantastic ensembles that participated!

Year 10 musician Kate Jackson has performed the Last Post at every year level assembly over the last two weeks. Kate also played the Last Post for the local football club. Thank you and well done.
