Last night’s 13-18 Choral and Orchestral Concert was truly phenomenal. 👏🏼
The String Orchestra took on a challenging work by Nielsen to begin the concert, involving a number of technically demanding string techniques, and played this with real fluency and musicality.
The Wind Band were on fine form with the Vaughan Williams Folksong Suite, a beautifully constructed piece that provides a showcase for all the sections of the band.
This was followed by a Concerto Grosso by Vivaldi, which featured exceptional solo playing from Weiqing on the 'Cello and Joe on the Violin.
In the second half, we moved through to Chapel for a performance of Mozart’s Missa Brevis in B flat, with a choir of 100 singers. Our Chapel Choir did so well to learn this in only two weeks, following our trip to St Paul’s, and there was lovely solo singing from Beth, Miranda, Kit and Henry.
Well done everyone! 🎶
