Choir Concert

6 07 2010

The final part of our Chorister Outreach work was a concert in the Royal Northern College of Music.  We sang the world premiere of ‘Thunder, Lightning or in rain’ with the cathedral choristers and eight other school choirs.  The piece was a setting of some of the words from Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’.  Having so many singers all performing together was a real treat and the performance was fantastic.  Well sone to all the choir for all their hard work this year.

music-notesLots of hard work is going on at this time of year.  Year 5 and 6 are having to really push themselves to get their performance ready for next week.  This song is a great one to remind us that we can achieve anything-as long as we believe in ourselves.

Cathedral Concert

21 06 2010

Well done choir! What a performance.  If you were nervous you didn’t show it – you looked and sounded like true professionals!  I’m really looking forward to the next concert now-the audience will be even bigger next time!

Thank you so much to all the parents/carers who allowed their children to come, and brought them all back to school on time so the evening went smoothly.  Thanks to those of you who came and watched too-it makes such a difference having a friendly audience.
