St Paul's Anglican Grammar School's Academy of Music students captivated the audience with their musical abilities at this year's "Kammer Konzert", leaving all attendees wanting more.
The Kammer Konzert is a yearly showcase of chamber music performed by small ensembles of academy students from both the school's Warragul and Traralgon campuses.
Students ranging from years four to 12 performed musical works by Handel, Warlock, Mozart, Glazunov, Saint-Saƫns, Keen, Britten, Vaughan Williams, Schubert and Sorensen throughout the evening.
The Academy of Music facilitates students to engage with professional musicians and this year they were joined on stage by John Noble (Orchestra Victoria and Itet), who has been working with academy musicians in professional workshops this term.
The concert was presented in conjunction with sculptures created by year 10 fine art students inspired by their studies of elongated figures produced by the 20th century Swiss artist Giacometti.
Open to students by audition, the Academy of Music is a high-level class-timetabled opportunity that builds professional musical experience providing students with the confidence to pursue further performance opportunities, gain live concert exposure and collaborate with professional conductors, educators and performers.
