GCSE Music Recital
February 9th 2006

This was a showcase aimed at parents and family of students taking GCSE Music. Organised by the Music Department the event took place in the school’s main hall which was beautifully arranged by Sue Taylor, Scientist/ Creative Designer, in a café style setting.

The evening was a mixture of solo performances of well known pieces and also of the students own composition work. These were performed on both traditional musical instruments and compositions created via the use of ICT music programmes.

Aims
• To show parents and siblings the work of our GCSE music students.
• To give students performance experience that will continue to build their confidence playing before a live audience.
• Use of ICT packages
• To record the evening for purposes of GCSE criteria and to aid students in the development of their work
