The Year 12 Music class presented an evening of performances, compositions and musicology excerpts for their parents on Monday 24th June. It was an opportunity to continue to build confidence as they move towards the Trial HSC examinations. The students were very professional in their approach to this evening and presented items of a high standard. To conclude the evening, they performed the piece ‘Until I Found You’ as a class ensemble.
Here are some reflections of the night from the students:
What did this performance opportunity mean to you?
Supper and songs was a good help, I think it was a helpful perspective change in the leadup to the HSC performances.

It was a great way for parents to see the progress their children had made and to see what we do in class. It was also a nice way to start performing in front of other people to build confidence. I think everybody was very calm and prepared to do their presentations and we all worked very well together during our class performance.
- Magdalena C
I think it was a great opportunity for us for to perform in a comfortable environment. It was a fun experience to practice for our families before ‘Illuminate’ which is for the full College community.

Anyone you'd like to thank?
Mrs Ford and Mrs Hobbins for doing such an amazing job setting things up for us, helping run the event and playing/singing with us so wonderfully! Also, to Mr Ehab Ibrahim for playing with Magdalena and being so professional and playing in such a rich way, and the tech team for setting up all the lights and electronics - it looked so beautiful.

What did you observe about others?
What I observed about others: everyone performed/presented their things really well. Everyone was super confident. Magdalena's performance in particular was one of my favourites since I've never heard it before and it was such a beautiful piece, especially with the cello accompaniment.
