Summer concert video

Huge thanks to Ben Fr for shooting, editing, and compiling all of our concert videos this year!

It’s been a good one!

It’s been a super-busy year, and it’s been amazing! We’ve totally lost count of the amount of musical events that have happened – as well as the ones we had on our calendar, all sorts of other things have popped up along the way, and it’s all been brilliant.

Next year will be just as busy, and we look forward to lots more music after the summer break. The calendar of music dates for next year is shown below, so that you can put all your Very Important Dates in your diary straight away!

Of course, being such a small department that does so much, we simply cannot survive without some help, and this is where our fabulous Music Leaders come in. They have been amazing this year, and have done so much (a lot of it behind the scenes). A big thank you to all our outgoing Music Leaders, and congratulations to those appointed for 2019-20:

Harry Aldridge
Jessica Whibley

Isobel Taylor
Hannah Martin
Benjamin Martin

Tour 2020

So sorry not to have been able to get the letters about this out before the holidays – Club Europe are still trying to get our accommodation sorted. We will be launching straight away in the new term!

Have a great summer!

Have a fabulous summer holiday! Maybe do some really lovely musical things – try a new instrument, learn a new piece, or listen to something different. Go to a Prom! Proms are brilliant – the atmosphere is like nothing else – and the programme of events is huge and varied. U18s go half price on all seated tickets – however I would absolutely encourage you to actually prom – which means queuing for a ticket on the day, and standing up (there are two queues – one for the Arena, and one for the Gallery – I would strongly recommend the gallery, because the acoustics are better, and if there is room, you can lie on the floor and listen to the music!). See the Proms website for full details.
