Rich Sound and a Full House

Impressive performances at the 2017 Summer Concert

At the summer concert, the stage belongs entirely to our younger students in grades 5–7.

 

The concert, which was lively from start to finish, kicked off with a performance by Wind Class 5, led by Ms. Wilmsmeyer. For Wind Class 6, led by Mr. Jamin, this was their final concert. It was impressive to see how much the students had mastered in their repertoire after just two school years! Through their collaboration with the concert band, conducted by Mr. Reisig, the students learned that their musical journey doesn’t have to end after Wind Ensemble Class. Depending on their musical interests, there are plenty of opportunities to further develop their musical skills in the concert band and our school’s other ensembles.

The group Swing and Sing delighted the audience with their original choreography and impressed everyone with their singer, Svea Turba (6a), who displayed remarkable confidence in her vocal performance.

The bagpipes donated by the Friends of the School a few months ago were played by the 7th-grade students in such a way that they proved to be a welcome addition to the school’s various musical ensembles.

The 6th-grade choir, supported by the Chamber Music Club, provided 90 minutes of fresh and spirited student music, bringing the event to a fantastic close.
