Music Introduction

The Music Department seeks to provide opportunities for students outside the timetabled curriculum through an extensive range of extra-curricular activities.

These currently include a beginner and advanced keyboard group, a beginner and advanced guitar group, school orchestra, wind band, a Lower School Choir for any pupils in Years 7 to 9 and a Youth Choir. The Youth

Choir is an auditioned ensemble for pupils in Years 8 to 13 and has toured extensively in recent years, giving concerts in Austria, Holland, France, Italy, Czech Republic as well as in the UK.

The Department aims, in collaboration with the Drama department, to produce a musical production every other year and recent successes have included the whole school production of ‘Annie’ in April 2000 and The Wizard of Oz in 2002. These are in addition to a regular programme of concerts throughout the school year.

The music department makes a significant contribution to the liturgical life of the school, with students performing regularly in Masses and other celebrations throughout the school.
