<strong>The</strong> Schola<br />

<strong>The</strong> Schola had a very succesful trip to Tuscany, where it sang at the<br />

presitigious festival Incontri in Terra di Siena accompanied by an<br />

excellent group of string players from Rome. <strong>The</strong> programme, one of<br />

English Church music culminated in Handel's Coronation Anthems.<br />

<strong>The</strong> beautiful cathedral in Citta della Pieve was the venue for the<br />

concer t and it was extremely well received by the large and appreciative<br />

audience.<br />

<strong>The</strong> boys robing up “al fresco” before singing Mass at the parish<br />

churh of Chianciano Terme, Tuscany.<br />

Concer ts<br />

<strong>The</strong> theme of this year's end of year concer t was 'We'll Meet Again'<br />

and included a good number of war time songs, the Dam Busters<br />

March, Mars and Nimrod, played by the school's main ensembles. <strong>The</strong><br />

theatre was decked out in Union flags and there were projected war<br />

images on the huge screen at the back of the stage, all to great effect.<br />
