Musical talent shines in inter-House challenge
The strong and varied musical talents of
Pocklington School’s pupils were showcased
during the Sixth Form-led House Music Festival
at the School’s Tom Stoppard Theatre.
Pupils from each of the School’s four houses
picked music and practised among themselves
before performing for two nights in a variety of
styles in front of packed audiences and a
judging panel.
Wilberforce House’s repertoire included a
beautiful rendition of Theme from Schindler’s
List with an emotive violin solo by Harry
Kneeshaw, which was voted the best individual
item. Dolman House showed great voice
control with their two choral pieces: the tender
Remember Me and a lively Praise You.
Hutton House’s performance included The Pink
Panther Theme, complete with a prowling,
triangle-playing panther.
Gruggen House, who were declared the overall
winners, rounded off their performance with the
Grease classic, You’re the One That I Want,
when the enthusiasm of everyone captivated
the entire audience.
