Chilcote Violin and Viola concert

On Tuesday, over 40 Chilcote violin and viola players performed in a concert for their families, playing pieces they have learned over the last term at school. They all played extremely well in their groups and some pupils also played solos confidently.

It was lovely to see the good progress made by the pupils since the beginning of the year and to witness the teamwork in all of the group performances.
Well done to you all and to Miss Hobbs who has taught and supported you so positively all year.

Thank you very much to all of our families too for the support you give at home-and to Miss Hobbs for all her hard work this academic year.

Unfortunately, not all groups are pictured here as the ipad failed to record the last few performances correctly. Watch this space for  a further blog to show their work too.

Area Gala Concert -March 2018- second blog

I have realised that some of the video clips previously posted on this blog, will not play properly, so they have now been separated into smaller clips, so I am attempting to post them again- in the hope that they will now play properly! So sorry for the technical hitches.

On Tuesday 27th March, some of Chilcote`s instrumental players took part in a Music Service Area Gala concert at the new Conservatoire in Birmingham.
They performed 4 pieces, as part of the Hall Green Area Mixed Ensemble with children from other schools, then listened to a variety of other groups from all over Birmingham.
They all performed confidently and at a high standard and we were very proud of them all.
Thank you all for representing Chilcote so well, you have all worked hard, attending the ensemble on Tuesday afternoons after school for the past 2 terms.
Thank you very much also to all your parents who have supported your practice and enabled you to attend the rehearsals and concert. It is great to be part of an ensemble like this.
