East Kent Children's Orchestra launched at St Edmund's

Date: Wednesday 10 February 2010

The long awaited launch in January of the School’s new East Kent Children's Orchestra was a great success, with almost 40 musicians, including 9 from other schools in the area, assembling at St. Edmund's in a formidable line up.

Weekly rehearsals have seen a rapid improvement in both instrumental playing and basic orchestral skills, with repertoire including the Dambusters March and New York, New York. An open rehearsal and short performance is planned for Wednesday 24th March, at 4.30pm in the school hall.

Any young musicians (Years 3-8) interested in taking part are very welcome to call Mrs Carol Hawkins on 01227 475620 for details.
