Creative Arts Senior Music Festival 2019

The 2019 Pittwater House Creative Arts Senior Music Festival will be held on Thursday 17 October and Monday 21 October in the Creative Arts Centre. The evenings will commence at 6pm and will finish approximately 7:30pm depending on the number of performers.

The Senior Music Festival is a performance opportunity that is open to all students in Years 7-11. The students can perform as either a soloist or in a small group (maximum 4 players). We encourage everyone who learns a musical instrument to perform at this event whether they are taught by one of the Pittwater House music tutors or an outside tutor. Students are able to enter a maximum of 2 pieces on any instrument but can perform 2 pieces on different instruments. There is a total maximum time limit of 5 minutes per student.

Students performing vocal solos will need to submit the lyrics to their song with their application form.

Backing tracks are an acceptable accompaniment but must NOT contain the instrumental/vocal part being performed by the student. A piano/keyboard accompaniment can be arranged with sufficient notice. A piano accompanist can be provided if music is handed in to the music cottage by the end of Term 3.

 Please complete the application form on Skoolbag before 3.00pm on Tuesday 15 October. Late entries CANNOT be accepted.

 If you have any questions please email the Mr Jim Abraham at  musictutor@tphs.nsw.edu.au
