On the 18th April, the music department hosted their first ‘Music from the Movies’ Concert and it was an enormous success.
The afternoon was off to lively start when the KS3 singers performed a version of ‘Mamma Mia’. This was followed by self-led guitar, keyboard and drum ensembles playing a medley of famous film themes. There were several memorable vocal performances, including ‘Skyfall’, ‘Remember me’ with Ukulele accompaniment and ‘Cups’ which then led into a beautifully tranquil violin performance of ‘The Legend of Ashitaka’.
The Ukulele group performed a lovely arrangement of ‘Lava’ before the audience were treated to an energetic self-choreographed dance, by two of our choir members, along to the track of ‘Footloose’.
The penultimate toe-tapping classic ‘Eye of the Tiger’ was stylishly performed by two Year 8 musicians on electric guitar and drums, along with Mrs Williams on piano before rounding off the concert with all singers coming together to perform a medley from ‘The Greatest Showman’.
The overall standard of performances was fantastic, and Mrs Williams and Miss Gilyead could not have been prouder. We look forward to welcoming you back for our end of year ‘Summer Spectacular’ Concert!
