An Evening of Song

An Evening of Song

The Music Department were delighted to present An Evening of Song which featured singers from all year groups.

The recital demonstrated the extraordinary talents of many pupils who exuded style in their performances- Toby Carter’s moving rendition of Purcell’s Music for a While, Chelsea Chan’s Melodramma and Aldi Ho’s Die Nachtingall by Alban Berg were particularly striking. Moving performances were given by Joshua Millar singing Nell by Gabriel Faure, Millie Thomas singing Chanson d’Amour also by Gabriel Faure and Cyrus Liu singing The Sky Above The Roof  by Vaughan Williams. High praise must be given to pupils in the lower school- first years in particular. It was wonderful to hear and see them singing with such expression and determination: Tanya Challier, Chloe Elder, George McAree and Jasintha Emmanuel have an exciting vocal future ahead of them.

Set in the Wilberforce Hall, the evening was a relaxed and celebratory affair that was suggested by our incredible team of vocal Visiting Music Teachers. Caterham School is proud to have some of the best practitioners in this field teaching daily, on-site. Their inspirational approach has a huge impact on all vocal music in the school including the choirs. Huge thanks must go to these fantastic teachers.
