Victorian Jazz Championships
Judy Bartosy
Musicland never stops and term 2 saw us involved in a schools music festival, as well as in preparations for the Music Camp and mid year concert. The Music Festival was the All Saints Jazz Festival held over the weekend of May 1st and 2nd at St. Leonards College in Brighton. This festival attracted more than 30 schools, who participated in competitions over the two days. Our stage band performed 3 pieces and were highly praised for their efforts. The Stage band was conducted by Martin Corcoran, assisted by Ken Gardner, and is made up of 15 students. The students were able to watch other ensembles performing throughout the day and really enjoyed this interaction with students from other schools. The Music Camp and mid-year concerts were postponed and will be held at the start of term 3. We hope to see many of you at our concert!
