Student Performers Society 2010
The
Student Performers Society was formed in 2007 with the idea to provide
students with the opportunity to perform in a friendly, non judgmental
environment. Brenda
Hunting’s idea grew quickly with the support of the MTAQ to three
performances held each year in May, July and October.
In
2009, our third year, we were very pleased to see and hear very
talented performers of all ages performing pieces from the early
beginner through to AMusA.
The instrumentalists included: piano, voice, violin and 'cello.
We now have an accompanist who can perform with all our
instrumentalists at a very reasonable fee so we can encourage a wider
variety of performers to this event.
We thank those teachers and parents supporting their students
and attending the concerts.
We
have had wonderful feedback from parents. Many have commented on how
it has prepared their child for concerts, exams and eisteddfods, but
my favourite comment has been, “She never thought she would have the
confidence to be able to play in front of people, but really enjoyed
herself.”
We
have very exciting news that two new Performer Societies, the
Westside/Central and Northside Branch have been now formed to provide
more opportunities for our students.
We would like to say a huge thank you to Sharon Bourne, Tertia
Hogan and Carmel Sangster for their time and effort in getting the new
branches up and running. All
of the concert dates, along with contact details for the three
branches, are on the MTAQ web site.
We
would like to thank Masson Music for their ongoing support.
Their performance area is wonderful with excellent acoustics
and they provide a beautiful grand piano to perform on.
We are also thrilled to welcome the AMEB, Boyds The Piano Shop,
and Play Today Music Brendale for sponsoring our new branches.
Of
course the Student Performers Society would not be such a success
without the help and support from teachers, Imelda Holt and Kaori
Kondo, and our brilliant accompanist Emily Hsu.
We
hope to see you at our next concert,
Yours
Deanne Scott and Brenda Hunting
