Harris Federation Festival of Music – Rehearsals in Full Swing

In recent weeks, our students have been working tirelessly in rehearsals as we prepare for the Harris Federation Festival of Music, taking place at Fairfield Halls on 9th July. Both our choir and orchestra have shown real commitment, focus, and enthusiasm as they refine an exciting programme of music for what promises to be a fantastic evening. 

Rehearsal sessions have been filled with energy and ambition, with students rising to the challenge of performing in a professional concert venue. From polishing ensemble skills to shaping musical expression, the progress made so far has been impressive, and the standard of musicianship continues to grow each week. 

We are incredibly proud of the hard work our young musicians are putting in and are very much looking forward to sharing these amazing pieces with our audience in July. It is shaping up to be a memorable celebration of music across the Harris Federation.
