Director of Music | Mr Jan Hewerdine

Welcome to Week 10

During Term 4, we will be running all ensembles based on our 2021 membership. For many, this will mean a change. Families will be contacted soon as to which ensemble(s) and the requirements.

I want to draw your attention to the Rhythm Section Workshops, Monday 28 and Tuesday 29 September (Week 2 of the holidays). These workshops focus purely on the guitarists, pianists, bass players and drummers of our four Big Bands and the Terrace Rock Band. We will be bringing in specialist tutors to work with the boys to hone their individual and collective ensemble skills. For some of these musicians, they will be newly minted members of these ensembles!

As you can see, we have other workshops running during the break. I ask that parents please respond promptly to the Parent Lounge invites so that we can generate accurate rolls and engage the appropriate number of tutors.

If you have any queries or concerns, please contact the Music Department  music@terrace.qld.edu.au
