Queen's College, London - Orchestra and Choir
Conductor: Kieran Hughes
Queen's is a leading independent day school for girls between the ages of 11 and 18 in central London. Granted a Royal Charter by Queen Victoria in 1853, Queen's College has been at the forefront of education for 175 years and was the first British educational establishment to give academic qualifications to women. We are now one of the highest achieving, diverse and forward-looking girls’ schools in London. Thanks to its growing reputation academically as well as in the arts, they are now embarking on their fourth international music tour, this year to the Netherlands and Belgium!
Queen's College, London Orchestra and Choir have gone from strength to strength in the last 10 years. Today the department has over 300 pupils taking vocal or instrumental lessons each week. The Choir and Orchestra have performed at several notable venues in London, including Regents Hall. The program you will hear today, hosted by these young and motivated musicians, consists of a variety of musical styles, from classical works, pop music, and film music to musicals soundtracks from West End shows.
For some of our youngest pupils this is their first ever musical tour abroad! We are excited to be here, sharing our passion for music and enabling our young players. Our pupils are so delighted to be here to perform for you and they are looking forward to this concert with enthusiasm.
