On Monday, music scholars from the Remove, Lower Fifth and Lower Sixth gathered in the School Hall to give a glorious concert of solo pieces. Hugh D joined from Upper Sixth as an exception, to give an exquisite performance with Isla M and Charlie B, to form the KSR Piano Trio. Having thought that the concert might be quite brief, our expectations were far exceeded, with many pupils opting to play full concerto movements! Well done to our brilliant music scholars and we wish our Upper Fifth and Upper Sixth pupils all the best in their upcoming national examinations.
