Australian Idol Excursion
170 students from elective music years 9-12, Vet Entertainment yr 11 & 12, Drama yr 11 and 12 and all members of the St Andrews Choir attended the semi-final of Australian Idol on Monday the 18th of March. It was a truly valuable experience for students to gain an insight into the world of television production. Our students were very excited to be part of the live audience and witness some very high level vocal performances. They were receptive at the appropriate times as well as attentive and respectful at all other times throughout the live recording. We were treated to some amazing vocal performances by the six finalists as they covered genres such as Pop, country, dance, ballads and R&B. The atmosphere was electrifying as our students rose to the occasion by screaming and clapping for their favourite singers. All of our student performers and their families were very appreciative of the opportunity to attend the event.
St Andrews College, Marayong would like to invite you to the annual year 11 Jazz concert 2024.
On Wednesday, week 10, Term 1, we will be showcasing the learning that has taken place during the Jazz unit . Students have studied the topic, unpacked the fundamentals and aligned them to the concepts of music. They have exercised their listening skills and have also developed their newly acquired jazz skills. Most students are utilising elements of improvisation throughout their performances and exploring typical expressive techniques found across the jazz genre. Our year 11 students will be marked live that evening by all the teachers of the Music faculty. Entry to the Jazz concert is free and light refreshments will be available on the night.
We hope to see you there.
