Easter Concert

On   Thursday 22nd March, the Shavington High School Concert Band and the Co-Operative Wind Bands (Crewe), performed at the Easter Concert.  The Concert Band, conducted by Mr Clark, performed six pieces including Celtic Dream, Kalinka and Blue Danube, with both bands playing a finale piece Prelude from Te Deum.  Also featuring at the concert were Shavington High’s Guitar Group who performed two songs; You’re Wondering Now and El Condor Passa. 

The Co-operative Wind Bands, conducted by Mrs Clark, performed a total of six pieces including: Washington Post, Hawaii Five O, Pirates of The Caribbean, Jai Ho and Riverdance.  Musicians from both bands performed to a very high standard which made this a really enjoyable night for both the audience and the performers.

Overall we raised over £600, which will certainly help both the Shavington Concert Band and The Co-operative Wind Bands for new music & instruments.
