Sizzling Ensemble Night
2019 was the last time we were able to host our Senior Ensembles Evening event, and last Thursday it was great to finally be able to showcase all of our amazing Senior ensembles on one night.
Each ensemble performed a 10-15 minute set of music to showcase a variety of repertoire they had worked on throughout the year, and every ensemble performed very well and entertained the audience. The ensembles included; Senior Concert Band, Senior Stage Band, Senior Vocal Group, Saxophone Quartet, Guitar Ensemble, Intermediate Stage Band and the Senior Strings Ensemble.
The evening also featured the very first appearance of Thomas Hassall Music Alumni – with a handful of graduated students returning to perform together with our current musicians. This was great to see, and all alumni thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to perform again with our ensembles. The Creative Arts Department will be expanding upon this idea in 2023 to continue to grow the community and offer more opportunities and experiences for students, families and friends to participate in music-making here at College. More information about this to be announced early in 2023.
Thank you also to all of the Creative Arts staff and AV team for making this a special event.

Director of Ensembles
