Music Ensembles at KGV

The KGV Music Department would really like your help to encourage students that are learning instruments to get involved in our music groups. We have many activities on offer and would particularly like to push our Training Orchestra and the KGV Orchestra – both rehearse on Tuesdays after school, as well as our Year 7 Choir (Wednesdays) and the KGV Choir (Fridays) that both rehearse during lunchtime.

Please do contact me if you have any questions or would like help/advice finding instrumental lessons.

Music Dates Coming Up:

• ESF Music Festival – 11-14 February 2019
• IH Music – Friday 8 March 2019
• Spring Concert – Wednesday 3 April 2019.
