This is what the orchestra got up to today:
Now all the orchestra need to do is attempt to complete the waltz in 30 seconds!

Congratulations to everyone involved in the Albatross project.
Rehearsals begin next week. Check the Albatross page for more details. This year in Battle of the Bands, there will be one rule change: There are no minimum or maximum limits to the number of people in one band. Soloists will also be accepted.
For more information about this year's competition, visit the Battle of the Bands page. Thank you and well done to everyone who auditioned for the Albatross project last week.
Casting will be announced this week - by Friday 31st January at the latest, depending on casting decision in Nairobi, Kenya. The deadline for Albatross participation is TOMORROW. Forms must be returned to the school office by 3pm tomorrow (Friday 17th January). Albatross auditions will occur next week during lunchtime. Below you can download the audition scripts and song lyrics. 
Mega Choir will start tomorrow morning at 8am in the school hall. Miss Rusbatch is planning to host a concert for musically talented children throughout the school. The concerts will be an opportunity for musicians to perform on stage in front of an audience. The school choirs, orchestra, small ensembles and soloists will be encouraged to perform. If you, as a parent, would like your child to perform on their instrument, please contact Miss Rusbatch. The Spring Concert will take place on Wednesday 19th March. More details coming soon... 
The Year 6 band 'Checkpoint' kindly agreed to help Miss Rusbatch for her current university MA project. The children wrote and performed their own song called You Don't Live Twice. Here's the result: Minnie (vocals), Ted (drums), Luke (piano), Samuel (acoustic guitar), Jack (electric guitar), Noah (bass guitar). Here they are in the recording studio:  I hope you all had a wonderful festive holiday and enjoyed saying goodbye to the eventful and memorable 2013 and hello to what will surely be a magically musical 2014.
Music clubs and rehearsals will not begin until week 2 of this term - week beginning 13th January. |
