Waldegrave School End of Spring Magazine 2023

UPCOMING EVENTS 18 May: European Youth Orchestra trip to Fontainebleau 13 June: Richmond Performing Arts Choral Festival - Chamber Choir 2 July: Richmond Symphony Orchestra Concert featuring The Waldegrave Choirs 17 July: Waldegrave Rocks Summer Festival

We were delighted to get the opportunity to share the pieces our ensembles have been working on since Christmas with the Year 7 and 8 students and staff during an end of term concert on the final Friday of the Spring Term. The transition into the Summer term is always tinged with sadness as our Year 11 and 13 musicians step back from rehearsals to start their exam preparations. The concert was therefore very much an opportunity to invite the Year 7 and 8 students to hear the different groups perform and also to encourage them to come and join them if they would like to in the Summer term. The Chamber Choir performed The Ballad of Sweeney Todd and Fix You by Coldplay which they will take to the Richmond Performing Arts Festival in June. String Orchestra treated us to a Pirates of the Caribbean medley, Orchestra to two different dance pieces and Swing Band gave us a sneak preview of what they will be performing in the upcoming Waldegrave Rocks Summer Festival. Finally the Year 7 Choir gave a brilliant performance of Whitney Houston's One Moment in Time.
