All primary schools are invited to be a part of the 2010 Primary Proms program.
In 2010, three exciting concerts featuring combined Years 3 and 4 primary school choirs of 450 voices and outstanding individual school items will be presented in The Sydney Town Hall.
The 2010 repertoire will feature an array of choral works both challenging and diverse for Years 3 and 4 primary school choirs including partner songs, unison singing and 2 part songs.
Schools are encouraged to audition choirs of up to 30 students from Years 3 and 4 capable of singing in two parts. Successful schools are selected for one performance only. A participation fee of $30.00 (plus GST) per student will be payable upon acceptance into the program.
Every public school applying will have access to comprehensive teacher professional learning and the 2010 Primary Proms repertoire and teaching CDs. Teachers may opt to attend just the professional learning component of the program.
For further information concerning the 2010 Primary Proms Festival, please contact Ian Jefferson, Concerts Coordinator at The Arts Unit, on 8512 1181 or email Ian.Jefferson@det.nsw.edu.au.
