First Year Singers and Musicians Impress at Class Concerts
Class Concerts took place this week for all of the First Year forms and there was such an impressive array of talent shown by both instrumentalists and singers. The concerts provide an informal setting that allows less confident performers to share their skills and passion with the rest of their form. And, as always, there were displays of hidden talents. In all cases, the support and encouragement shown by the classes was exemplary. Everything from Haydn to Metallica was covered over the course of the week and a huge array of instruments played including William J on the Double Bass, Shaily R on the Harp and Tara S on the Cornet. A huge number of vocal performances included particularly impressive performances from Finley R, Florence S, Lilly W and Healey D. Many first years are involved in the school’s ensembles and have been working hard on music for the upcoming Autumn Concert. It is always exciting to have First Years with such energy and enthusiasm for performing and particularly rewarding to see them develop into confident and accomplished performers.
