The Mad Month of Music!

It has been an action packed couple of months in the Music Department! It has been wonderful to see students, teachers and parents getting involved and celebrating Music together!



This year we directed the Musical Production. It was a huge success and all 80 students involved are to be congratulated on their amazing commitment and dedication to putting on a great show! Every night was a sell out performances! Thanks to everyone's support and encouragement- We had a great time!




We also hosted our annual vocal concert- 'The Big Sing,' which was bigger and better than the previous year!
There were guest choirs from La Plata and the 6 choirs we have between Prep School and the College.The Georgian Community Choir also showcased some of the pieces they had been rehearsing. Special guests and students also performed solo items and again it was wonderful to see the support of parents, staff and students with over 600 people attending the event!


More wonderful extra curricular activities and concerts are to come with the St George's College Music Showcase at the Old Georgian Club in Capital, on Friday, 31st August. Doors open at 18:30, the concert starts at 19:30.
All reservations need to be made with the OG Club- 

We also have our Junior Music Performance Tour (Gira de Musica) to Cordoba in September. This is an opportunity for our ES1 and ES2 students to showcase the performances they have been working on in classes as well as a choir. The 26 boys and girls attending the trip will be performing in a Sunday Mass Service in a Church and hosting 2 concerts at 2 International schools in Rio Cuarto & Cordoba City. We are busily preparing and rehearsing and very excited to be sharing our music with other schools in another province within Argentina.
