After the success of last year’s inaugural joint concert with King Edward’s Aston, we hosted the second concert between the schools. Various solos and group performances from both schools treated our audience to a programme lasting just under 90 minutes. The programme included KE Aston’s String Ensemble playing ‘La Paloma’ and a blistering fast rendition of the first movement of  Telemann’s Concerto in D major for four guitars. Of course, we were treated to some solos from both schools including the first movement of Beethoven’s Moonlight sonata and ‘En Irlande’ performed by our current Young Musician of  the Year, Josef Feiven. All in all, it was an enjoyable evening and we look forward to many more concerts in the years to come between both schools.
