Students sing alongside Eboracum Baroque

Students sing alongside Eboracum Baroque

Members of our Senior School chamber choir, Allegro, were invited to sing alongside Eboracum Baroque at Clare College Chapel on Saturday 3 February. Ebacorum Baroque is an internationally acclaimed group of young professional singers and instrumentalists, so it is a huge honour for our girls to be singing alongside them. Combined with the professional musicians and the girls’ choir of St Catherine's College, Cambridge, our students gave a spectacular performance of Vivaldi's Gloria in the intimate setting of the college chapel.

Upper Sixth Music scholar Lily B., who intends to study singing professionally after leaving school, performed the duet Laudamus Te alongside professional soprano Lottie Bowden with poise and panache. This was such an excellent opportunity for our students. Well done to all who were involved in this fantastic collaborative project and thanks as ever to our Music department team for preparing the students so well.
