VCE Soloists’ Concert

A Showcase of Musical Excellence

Due to the unfortunate challenges related to live performance this year, our annual Showcase Concert, scheduled to be held at Elisabeth Murdoch Hall in the Melbourne Recital Centre, was unable to proceed.

Although extremely disappointing, it was determined that under no circumstance were our wonderful students going miss out on sharing their gifts and talents with those that need to experience them most right now.

On Friday 16 October 2020, the Music Department successfully launched the online VCE Soloists’ Concert; an evening of music of the highest calibre from exceptional musicians in Years 11 and 12 at Loreto Toorak. The abilities and prowess of our musicians, both students and staff, are to be fervently applauded. We are particularly grateful to the performers’ instrumental teachers and accompanists for the role they play in facilitating such excellence and passion from these incredibly gifted students.

Congratulations and thank you to all that have been involved in the many months and years that have led to this evening’s performances. It is my pleasure to present to you these incredible students and invite you to join me in appreciating the VCE Soloists’ Concert for 2020.

Our thoughts and prayers are with those who have been affected by or lost loved ones during this tumultuous year, and further dedicate this VCE Soloists’ Concert to all those that need a little more music in their lives right now.
