INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC
The instrumental music team have been busy spreading the sounds of many instruments that Greenvale Secondary College have available to learn. Mrs McPhail has been around to some year 7 classes to demonstrate our woodwind and brass instruments. The students listened respectfully and were engaged in these demonstrations.
The music staff have had two displays of our brass, woodwind and string instruments on display in the library this term. The students were given the opportunity to try them out during their break times. It was great to see so many students come along and try an instrument (or several) that they otherwise wouldn’t have had the chance to. Students who attended really enjoyed this opportunity and we look forward to welcoming more students to our program.
The music department has also been busy preparing students for our upcoming Library Performances which are performances held during both breaks to their peers and teachers. Last term, these performances were well received by a large number of students and teachers.
Our school ensemble has been busy working on new pieces. Our ensemble meets after school every Wednesday 3:10pm – 4:00pm. It consists of woodwind, brass, strings, piano and percussion instruments. All students are welcome and encouraged to come and try out ensemble, even if you don’t have lessons through the school.
