Music Scholars’ Concert

Our annual Scholars’ Concert was an evening of style and excellence. All performers showed precision, confidence, depth and passion in their playing. Repertoire was diverse and exciting- ranging from early Baroque (Albert C’s violin performance was gripping) and extending to a modern marimba masterpiece (delivered with expertise by Rupert L). All year groups were represented and particular congratulations must go to First Years Catherine Y and Holly C. The concert opened with the delightful trio (Alice H, Violet W and Franchesca C) performing the challenging but stunning Trio by Madeline Dring. Other notable performances were given by cellist Alex M (performing Prayer by Bloch), clarinettist Ammara K (performing Sarabande et Allegro by Grovlez) and pianist Ethan G (performing Schubert’s Impromptu No. 3). It should be mentioned that many of our Scholars are multi-instrumentalists and singers.

In the words of one of our musicians, Annie L (4th Year); “All in all, it was a wonderful concert, and an extremely huge well-done to everyone who played. Thank you to all the parents for supporting us through the years so that we may achieve this, and to Mr White for being a fantastic accompanist. Also, thank you to all the Visiting Music Teachers, Mr Hall, Mr Assen, Mrs Richards and Dr Brammeld for organising, supporting and teaching us so that our skills have developed into what we all witnessed today.”
