From large inclusive choirs to individual musicians, all the learners of Union Preparatory School, Graaff-Reinet are encouraged to explore and respond to music.
This week, in one of 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙡’𝙨 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙛𝙪𝙣𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙮𝙚𝙖𝙧, the learners were able to showcase the pieces they have been working so hard on all year.
On Wednesday evening, 28 September, the annual 𝗠𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗖 𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗥 was held at the John Rupert Theatre.
A fitting start to the evening was the refreshments served at the beautiful Drostdy Hotel, where parents and friends had the opportunity to mingle before the show, after which everyone walked over to the theatre to watch the young musicians perform.
