The month of May heralds concert season in Perth, and the first concert held at St Mary’s Cathedral for 2023 was presented by the students of the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA).

It was a delight to host the WAAPA students once more as they return each year for a performance at the Cathedral. This particular concert featured some rarely heard 19th century choral works as well as a perennial favourite of audiences and musicians alike: Vivaldi’s Gloria.
An audience of over 400 guests enjoyed this programme of music presented with such vibrancy and dynamism from the young students. Congratulations to all the students involved.
