The Festival Fringe Concert is always an amazing concert in our school Chapel, featuring some of our finest musicians. However, this year we are presenting a semi-staged performance of Purcell’s opera, Dido and Aeneas, with a wonderfully talented cast of Roedean students in the solo roles.

The Festival Fringe Concert is always an amazing concert in our school Chapel, featuring some of our finest musicians. However, this year we are presenting a semi-staged performance of Purcell’s opera, Dido and Aeneas, with a wonderfully talented cast of Roedean students in the solo roles.

Galina (Yr11) enjoyed great success at the Hastings Music Festival, which took place on stage at the White Rock Theatre at the end of last term. Not only did she win two prizes on the Piano, but she was also awarded the second highest mark in the festival for her performance of the first movement of Mozart's Clarinet Concerto.

In addition, following her concerto movement performance on Soprano Saxophone, the festival adjudicator, Ken Roberts, has invited Galina to perform the full Concerto in C minor by Marcello in a forthcoming concert of Baroque music; she will be accompanied by the strings of the Sussex Concert Orchestra –what an exciting opportunity!

Congratulations!
