State Honours Ensemble Programme

During the past school holidays four middle/senior college students were lucky enough to be nominated and selected for a State Honours Ensemble Programme (SHEP) at the Brisbane Conservatorium of Music in conjunction with Griffith University. The State Honours Ensemble Program is an educational program for music students that helps extend and encourage their pursuit of musical excellence. The musicians representing the college were, Kate Monroe – violin, Lachlan Masson – vocals, Charlotte Empson – vocals and Jared Solti – trumpet. The students spent several days rehearsing with leading conductors which culminated in spectacular concerts which showcased their work. The students found it both inspiring and rewarding to work alongside other likeminded musicians. Congratulations to all involved, a huge achievement.
