String Soiree

On Tuesday 18th June the string and guitar students of MGC performed at the String Soiree. Students presented a variety of solo and ensemble pieces, and it really was a fantastic evening of music! Highlights included performances by the String Ensemble, Violin Ensemble and Cello Ensemble, rock star performance of ‘Enter Sandman’ by Arshia Dabas, ‘Purple Haze’ by Aimee Stranks and Laura Wilcox, solo Violin performances by Evie Scott and Mihiri Dharmabandu, and a beautiful American tune by Layla Enriquez-Tsilfidis who sang and accompanied herself. Special shout out to the following Year 12s for performing in their final soiree at MGC: Jemima Lam, Susan Su, Crystal Choo and Layla Enriquez-Tsilfidis. Thank you to our audience for supporting the students, and to all performers for putting on a vibrant performance evening! Thank you to Les Gyori, Andy Clarke and Wen Chin for preparing their students.

Vocal Showcase

On the evening of 17th June, the auditorium came alive with the sounds from MGC’s Vocal Showcase! This evening is where students who are part of Choir, Show Choir, Soul Band or who take vocal lessons, perform for their friends and family to show what they have been working on. Rachel and I, as choir captains this year, hosted the Vocal Showcase. We had a total of 32 performances throughout the night, including solo, duet, trio, and choir performances. There were even a few songs that were sung in different languages! The soul band was also involved on the night, which made the performances even more lively and exciting, performing Whitney Housten’s classic “How Will I Know”. The mass song finale, “Don’t Blame it on the Boogie” saw all 85 students onstage, singing and dancing.

It was very exciting to perform as well as see others perform. It was a great experience being part of the organization of the Vocal Showcase. I also felt that by being able to host it, I became more confident and improved my public speaking skills.

It was a super fun night. A special thank you to the following Year 12’s involved:

Riley Stoffel, Franny Fleet, Ella Paull, Sonia Li, Miranda Moloney, Caitlin Moloney and Marissa Di Marzio.

We could not have done it without Ms Corry, Andy Clarke (Soul Band), and our amazing vocal teachers, Ellyce Calder and Susan De Jong. A big thank you to all of them for putting together the Vocal Showcase, we really could not have done it without you.
