Our Senior students put on two outstanding shows for our annual year-end music concerts. The Junior ensembles performed on Tuesday, May 26th, and our Senior ensembles had a chance to showcase on the evening of Wednesday, May 27th.
Watch the highlights from the Senior ensemble night:
Ragazza: “Maybe Someday”:
Alannah, Gr. 12: “You’ve Got a Friend”:
Bambina & Ragazza: “Lullaby of Birdland”:
Ragazza: “Butterfly” and “Lean On Me”:
Chorista: “Seal Lullaby”, “Shine On Me”, “Rolling in the Deep”:
The York House Music Department held an intimate evening of music featuring our Jazz Band, Ragazza and Bambina. Guests had a chance to mingle, enjoy a glass of wine and sample delicious hors d’oeuvres, all while listening to jazz standards, new favourites and solo performances from our talented musicians and singers.
This night was traditionally held at the now defunct Cellar Jazz Club. As of last year it has been held at YHS, where the foyer is transformed into a cabaret-style jazz club. “The Basement” gives our Senior students the chance to perform in a more intimate and casual setting.
