Year 9 perform "In C" by Terry Reily




As part of Year 9 Option music boys study the Twentieth Century movement of Minimalism. Through performance boys are learning how the music is constructed so they may compose their own Minimalist music.

After three lessons of rehearsal some of the boys performed today. Their performance lasted almost 10 minutes though was cut short by the end of lesson bell. In professional performances this piece may last anywhere from 20 minutes to 52 weeks!!!
