10학년 음악 수업을 위한 중등 음악 발표회 시리즈가 지난 주에 세 번째 그룹의 연주자들이 교실 콘서트를 선보이며 끝났습니다. 콘서트 시간(솔로 공연) 단원의 일환으로 11명의 Year 10 음악 학생들은 시각 예술 동료들과 선생님들로 구성된 청중을 위해 세 차례에 걸쳐 공연을 펼쳤습니다. 

The three concerts featured a variety of instruments, including the piano, violin, viola, cello, guitar and bass guitar, in programmes ranging across the globe and across 200 years of music history and styles. Student performers presented traditional American folk song to the work of 20th-century American violinist-composer Clarence White; explored the Romantic era of Western Art Music through Italian virtuoso violinist-composer Niccolò Paganini and the French composer Gabriel Fauré; brought in the world of Anime to the concert chamber through Japanese composer-songwriters Kenshi Yonezu, Mika Kobayashi and Joe Hisaishi; and the world of Pop with David Guetta and Taylor Swift, with some J-Pop courtesy of the Osaka band Hump Back.

As part of their Concert Time unit, students satisfy the four MYP Arts assessment criteria by providing their audience with the result of their own research, in the form of programme notes, complete an Arts Process Journal, summarizing their decisions and preparation for performance, present their solo piece, then and watch their concert videos to enable them to complete their evaluation and reflection.

Live music brings together the composer (the piece/song), the performer and the audience. There is nothing quite like a live concert experience; for performers and audience! We look forward to next semester when the Secondary Music Recital Series features our Year 9 musicians.
