SHEP MIDDLE SCHOOL
South-East Queensland 2021 Grand Finalé Concert Three Sunday 6 June Queensland Conservatorium
WELCOME We are delighted to welcome you the fifth annual SHEP Middle School - South-East Queensland cohort of 1020 emerging musicians to Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University’s state of the art South Bank facilities, and the excellent facilities in our partner network of schools and venues. We trust you will enjoy your experience with us. Now a firmly established aspect of music education in Queensland, SHEP has grown from relatively modest beginnings in 2001 to hosting over 4,500 students throughout Queensland each year; with many more being nominated than we are able to accommodate. Congratulations to all involved. In 2021 we are pleased to offer 4 Wind Ensembles, 3 Vocal Ensembles, 5 String Ensembles and for the first time a Guitar Ensemble. Participants have travelled from throughout South-East Queensland, representing 157 schools. Our 13 SHEP Middle School-South-East Queensland conductors and 3 accompanists are all esteemed Queensland clinicians. This year we are particularly pleased that so many families and schools have been willing, and able, to participate in our programs and thank all involved for their continued support of music education throughout the State. We hope to see many of you return as students, performers, and audience members in the future. Associate Professor Peter Morris Acting Director & Head of Ensembles & Orchestral Conducting Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University
