Christchurch Secondary Schools' Orchestra Festival

Michael Langdon, HOD Music —

The Christchurch Girls' High School and Christchurch Boys' High School Combined Orchestra as well as the Combined String Orchestra performed on Tuesday in the annual Christchurch Secondary Schools' Orchestra Festival, held back in the Town Hall for the first time in eight years.

Both groups performed very creditably and with real enthusiasm and energy. The Festival continues on Sunday, with the Gala Concert, where each group performs one piece and all the schools combine to create a huge orchestra that will perform three massed items.

Well done for a great day to everyone concerned!
