This successful collaboration with the drama
department meant that we had two and a half hours of
through-composed music to learn off by heart and then
performed with confidence. This could not have been done
without the wonderful support of all the singing teachers.
Likewise there was also an orchestra who only started
learning the music a few weeks before the show and they
must be commended for their skills, their patience and their
ability—to Sabina Virtosu, Leesu Kim, Katie Jillings,
Steph Tress, Emma Parkhouse, Oliver Marjot [S],
Conor Turley [A], Keshan Vaikunthanathan [Hl],
Max Gumpert [Hl] and Josh Cutrupi (GAP student)
(as well as Chris Warner [CR], Susanne Henwood [CR],
Oliver King [CR], Dave Harvey [CR], Ray Smith [CR] and
Martin Proctor [CR]).
We welcomed a new Head of Strings, Mrs Susie
Henwood, this year. Fresh from running the string department for the Berkshire Maestros, Susanne Henwood
has settled in to a very busy life here, teaching and directing. Camerata has expanded a little in size and has
performed a number of times this year to great acclaim.
String playing is expanding and the standard of performance remains exceptional.
Michael Roberts stepped down as Head of Jazz in
December to concentrate on his professional career—he
is still seen teaching pupils as a Visiting teacher however
and will continue to support jazz and song writing. We
have welcomed Ben Greenslade-Stanton as a musician in
residence, not just to run the Jazz band but also to create
a cd. Inspiration was produced internally and features the
best in song writing and performing on the Jazz/Rock side
of College. It is an exciting project, fantastically realised
and is a real tribute to what goes on in College on the song
writing front. If you wish to purchase t ??()??????????()????????????????????)M???????????????????????????????????????????)????????????????????
