On Monday, the University West Road Concert Hall was a hive of activity, as pupils in Years 5 to 8 were conveyed across Cambridge with their instruments, to rehearse for the evening’s Summer Concert. Fifteen of the senior ensembles performed on the night in front of a most appreciative audience, with particular highlights including the combined vocal performances of Chamber Choir & Senior Voices (over sixty pupils) and the Baroque Ensemble performing Henry Purcell’s Trumpet Sonata in D and which featured the harpsichord.

The high standard of performance and the assured confidence with which pupils presented themselves on stage, is testament to the pupils’ impressive abilities, the gifted team of professional musicians who are our Visiting Music Teachers, and the dedicated and talented staff within the St Faith’s Music Department. It was a very uplifting occasion which demonstrated how Music at St Faith’s is really thriving. It is our hope that performances and experiences like this will inspire our pupils to even greater musical success.
