It’s an annual outing to hear and record various group from the Canberra Girls Grammar School at Wesley. The performers are many and the groups and works are equally extensive, instrumentals of various formations and music from brass to Bach, guitar, flutes, trios, a quintet and choir to Mozart to Shostakovich, Michael Jackson and Carole Bayer Sager. Some tunes are obvious and popular and hugely inviting; others more obscure. The guitar group did Billie Jean by MJ and the Gabriel Singers performed Let it be in a very successful, subtly edited arrangement of our own local John Black. And then there's Handel, Boccherini and a few lesser names. Some players were particularly impressive but no names and all were keen and involved and confidently led by their teachers on the day. We must just hope that those who want to continue with their music studies still have a place to go.
