MUSIC DEPARTMENT

On Friday night, the senior musicians performed at the annual Senior Spring Concert held in the Dickinson Centre. Some boys also performed in combined ensembles as guests of Presbyterian Ladies' College at their concert held on the following day, Saturday. The boys performed magnificently and it was great to celebrate the work of all performers and farewell our senior Year 12 musicians who give so much of their time and energy supporting the musical life of the school. A fantastic concert to finish the Senior Ensemble's 2013 performance year. Various awards were presented at the end of the evening and these are listed in the Music Department Newsletter found by following the link below.

A performance for junior boys, held on Thursday 12 September in the MacKellar Hall, is the Junior School Strings Soiree, an opportunity to enjoy the work of our youngest string players - the Year Three String Programme musicians.

The last event for Winter Term, in amongst the various exams, is the Annual Music Dinner for senior boys. This event, to be held on Thursday, 19 September, is an opportunity for boys and Music Teachers to celebrate the year, thank the leaving Year 12s and the outgoing Music Captain, and also announce the Music Captain for 2014. An excellent way to complete a very busy and worthwhile musical year.

Upcoming events scheduled for next term include:

Concert Band Two performs at Rottnest Saturday 19 October

Music Breakfast for Middle and Senior School Musicians Wednesday 23 October

Junior and Middle School End of Year Concert 8 November
