Music at St Briavels School

1st April 2018
'Listening and Appraising' at St Briavels School
 
As part of our 'Listening and Appraising' in Music lessons, our pupils from Year 5 and Year 6 were invited to St Briavels school on Friday 27th April to enjoy a performance by an incredible string quartet.  The musicians provided an inspirational show that included many pieces of modern music that we recognised, intertwined with many pieces that were new to us.
They explained how their instruments were used and answered our many questions about their impressive performance.  The string musicians were extremely talented and they held our attention brilliantly.  They even invited Harriet from Willow Class and Jayden from Sycamore Class to join them in their demonstrations!  We were told that we made a fantastic audience and we were complimented on our wonderful behaviour. 
We are very grateful that we had the opportunity to watch such an engaging production and we loved discussing our favourite pieces that the quartet had played when we returned to school later in the day.
