Music

Queensland Catholic Schools Music Festival (QCMF)

This weekend will see Terrace Music take on all Catholic Schools from Queensland and various parts of Australia and New Zealand at what we consider to be our Grand Final for the year. The four days of competition will see 29 ensembles and 719 boys take the stage against 94 other schools, 536 ensembles and upwards of 14 000 musicians across eight venues.

QCMF is the largest festival of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. With 29 ensembles, Terrace will have the second largest music program participating this weekend.

Good luck to all of our performers and ensemble directors this weekend.

Le Tambourin feat James Weidinger

Well done to James Weidinger, who recorded Le Tambourin by Rameau in the Chapel of the Holy Family in preparation for his AMEB Grade 6 Trumpet exam. This performance was filmed and recorded by Terrace Live Production Services as part of a two day technical workshop.
