Our inaugural Advanced Young Musician of the Year final in April was a spectacular evening, adjudicated by Julian Hellaby. We heard 14 diverse performances, from Bach to improvised jazz. Well done all. Music maestros 15 abingdon.org.uk On a warm June evening, staff and students gathered outside Big School for a lively musical celebration of all things non-classical. The event featured a fantastic line up of soloists and bands from our own students as well as those from Fitzharrys, and St Helen and St Katharine. The diverse range of performances were outstanding with something for everyone. The concert continued well into the evening, with plenty of food and drink to keep the audience going through a thoroughly entertaining night. Congratulations to all who took part. Anything but classical Musical talents On 10 June, we held a solo platform and award holder concert at St Michael’s Church. Featuring students from across all ages, and a wide range of instruments, the concert was a true celebration of musical talent. The variety in the programme was matched only by the high standard of performance and enjoyed by the audience of parents and members of the public alike. At the end of the summer term, the Symphony Orchestra and Big Band spent seven days touring Prague, Pizen and several spa towns in Czechia. Undertaking six concerts in seven days, the students did Abingdon proud both with the quality and consistency of their playing. This was, without doubt, an extraordinary experience. Congratulations to all involved for an incredibly successful tour. Czechia Music tour Music Abingdon
