Jazz Picnic
On Saturday 28th June, the Parents & Friends’ Association (PFA) together with the Jazz Department hosted their annual ‘Jazz Picnic’ in the marquee. The weather was stunning and there was a bumper crowd (in fact, all tables were sold out long before the event!).
The Jazz Ensemble, Senior Jazz Combo and Jazz Orchestra all performed sets showcasing work from throughout the year and a number of pupil vocalists were featured. It was a particularly poignant event as we were saying goodbye to a number of Upper Sixth leavers destined for conservatoire Jazz courses. This is the first Jazz Picnic to feature a String section alongside the Jazz Orchestra as they performed music from the highly successful Session Orchestra concert that took place in March.
Huge thanks go to the PFA for the tireless work they do in supporting our pupils and organising events like this.
