A Wonderful Evening of Music

On Wednesday, the music department hosted a wonderful evening of ensemble music, showcasing many of our smaller chamber groups. The Brass Ensemble opened the evening with beautiful repertoire by Tallis and Gabrieli, our Clarinet Quartet impressed with Debussy and Berlin, followed by our Upper Sixth Piano Trio performing Beethoven with great conviction – Anna, Isaac and Natalie have been performing together since Year Six and this was their final concert as a trio.

Strad String Orchestra continued the evening with notable performances of works by Purcell, Delibes and Offenbach, and our Fourth Year trio entertained the audience with some classic jazz. Concert Band brilliantly performed works by Mussorgsky and Stalter to rapturous applause, and the Soul Band rounded off the evening with a fantastic swing and soul set. Congratulations to all who took part.
