Flute Concert

Mrs Glindemann’s flute students will be performing a concert on Monday 20th June. The concert will be in the Recital room in the PAC, from 5:00pm-6.30pm. Flute students will perform a variety of solo pieces, including  songs from movies, musicals, jazz, folk songs and pop songs, as well as classical pieces by Bach, Schubert, Telemann and others. Students will then combine and perform as a Flute Ensemble! The concert is FREE and all are welcome to attend.

Orpheus Strings Concert

On Sunday, 19th June at 3:00pm in Pat Heffernan Hall, Katoomba Primary School, Merriwa Street, Katoomba, Orpheus Strings will present a concert which includes some of the most beautiful music in the string repertoire: Vaughan Williams’ Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis, Grieg’s Holberg Suite, a contemporary Australian piece called Flying by Stephen Lalor and a highlight is our esteemed French horn soloist playing Etudes by Cherubini. We are delighted that two Year 11 students from BMGS are members of the ensemble - Emily Colbran and Maeve Magner - as well as Alumni Indigo Franklin and Sel Hardaker.

We are also planning to perform John Rutter’s Ukrainian Prayer which he has recently composed as his heartfelt response to the tragic current circumstances. Mrs Cooney is hoping that students from School will join a small choral ensemble to perform this piece. If you are interested in this opportunity please see Mrs Cooney and collect a copy of the music.
