Fusion Strings
Fusion Strings is a non-auditioned group open to all interested string players from Years 7 – 12. In some cases, younger students who are advanced on their instrument are also able to join. Membership of this nature is permitted at the discretion of the Director of Music, and in such case, a personal conversation will ensue.
Directed by a visiting tutor and professional in their field, Fusion Strings is designed for students interested in a variety of genres to develop their knowledge of the role of string players in modern music.
This ensemble is open to students with at least two year's experience on their instrument. They rehearse Tuesday lunchtimes, with rehearsals starting in Term 1, week 3. Rehearsals continue each week until mid-Term 4. Students will be required to arrive, ready to play at 12.45pm. It is encouraged that students bring a packed lunch to school on these days and eat this before rehearsal. They need to bring their instrument, required equipment, music, and a pencil to every rehearsal.
There are performances throughout the year including ABODA, Sing and String Soirée and assemblies, to name a few.
