Senior Ensemble Night: Winter Concert

Our Senior musicians had a chance to showcase on the evening of Wednesday, November 20th. Of special note was the presentation of Blue and Green Music by the Senior Band. This was dreamed up by Mr. Robertson and Mr. Bach to integrate their subjects. What a great idea: In the early 20th century, American painter, Georgia O’Keefe set out to give visual representation to the rhythm and movement of music in an attempt to inspire her introduction to abstract art. Almost a century later, the young artists and musicians of York House embarked on a project to recreate O’Keefe’s painting through sight and sound. Many thanks to Mr. Bach and Ms. Blackburn for putting on such a great show. View the highlights here:

Junior Ensemble Night: Winter Concert

The Grade 7-9 bands and choirs took took to the stage on the evening of Tuesday, November 19th for the Jr. Ensemble Night. These Junior musicians have only had two months of practice, but they sounded great.  Mr. Johnston stopped by the Grade 7 music class the day after the performance, and he found the class and Mr. Bach going through the recordings like athletes going through game tape. Check out the highlights in the video clips below.
