‘Oklahoma!’ Pit Orchestra brings music to life
As well as the amazing performances on stage last week in our production of ‘Oklahoma’, it was wonderful to see a number of student musicians performing in the orchestra pit and so ably supporting the stage performers. I think everyone will agree that the pit ensemble sounded very tight and well balanced, so we must congratulate the following students for their contribution to the success of the 2016 Tintern production:
Holly Fryer (Flute)
Erin Hynson (Guitar)
Clarisse Liew (Violin)
Tiana McAsey (Flute)
Charlotte Menagh (Clarinet)
Maya Watt (Trombone)
Alison Yang (Violin)
We were joined in the pit by three of Tintern’s ex-students and thank them for their wonderful contribution also:
Charlotte Black (Keyboard)
Chloe Eckley (Oboe)
Joshua Jones (Bass Guitar)
Alison Yang receives diploma at conferring ceremony
Year 11 student and current Tintern School Pianist, Alison Yang attended the University of Melbourne Australian Music Examinations Board Conferring Ceremony this week to receive her Associate Diploma on Violin. This is an outstanding attainment and we congratulate Alison on her achievement. Alison is pictured with her singing teacher, Ms Carole McKenzie, who teaches at Tintern and was presenting diplomas on behalf of the AMEB to singing students at the same ceremony.
