Thursday Lunchtime Concerts
Isn't the library meant to be a quiet place?
Yes for about a hundred students in the SIC, but one or two or sometimes three students have the opportunity to make the loveliest of sounds for all the rest to enjoy.
Every Thursday in Term 3 this year, 10 minutes was allocated for students who were brave enough to sign up to perform for their peers during lunchtime.
Here's the music we heard and their respective music-makers:
Week 2
Sylvia Li - Piano: Tchaikovsky - The Seasons - June
Week 3
Trisna Claney - Vocal: Misty
Week 4
Harry Stanbridge - Guitar and Vocal: 2 self-composed pieces
Week 5
Geoff Hill - Piano: Mozart concerto No. 19 - first movement
Week 6
Abigail Yeo - Piano: Beethoven - The Musical Clock
Ben Lamb - Vocal: Impossible Dream
Week 8
Franklin Yin and Svethlana Gallage - Guitar and Vocal: Yesterday
Week 9
Ben Lamb, Harry Stanbridge and Trisna Claney - Vocal: Impossible Dream
Abigail Yeo, Evelyn Yang and Sharon Li - Flute Trio: Faure - Sicilenne
As you can see, we had a great variety of music ranging from classical to jazz and from vocals to instrumentals. Some of the students in the SIC who would not normally go to concerts got to hear some good live music. Teachers were also seen to give their support by specially coming into the SIC to listen.
Thanks to all who participated and for all who kept respectfully and appreciatively quiet. ;-)
