There are also some places for drums, percussion, guitar, bass, and keyboard. The Riverina Anglican College Band plays a variety of concert band and big band repertoire, with and without vocal soloists, encompassing jazz and funk charts, pop and rock songs, and movie themes. Parts are arranged to include beginner to intermediate players, and to inspire and motivate our more advanced players. Our Band rehearses during Chapel each Wednesday, and performs at Chapel, at local Eisteddfods, and the Sydney School Band Festival. band in Sydney
Orchestra
Created for our growing community of string players, The Riverina Anglican College Orchestra is the place to play for those musicians who play violin, viola, cello or double bass. Many other musicians join the orchestra just because they love sound and the repertoire. Other instruments in our orchestra include acoustic guitar, keyboards, clarinets, flutes, trumpets, trombones and euphonium. Our Orchestra rehearses each Wednesday lunchtime, and performs at Chapel, at local Eisteddfods, and at the Sydney School Orchestra Festival. Special arrangements of classical music, pop tunes and movie themes enable players from beginner to advanced level to play together in this ensemble.
The Riverina Anglican College Band and Orchestra Mentorship Program
In Term 4 of each year, we invite selected students from the Stage 4 Music Course, and any beginner students from other years, to join the College Band or Orchestra. Students are given a mentor, or “buddy”, to help them transition into permanent membership of these ensembles. This mentor, or buddy, is usually a more senior student who plays their instrument. The mentor provides support for the new ensemble members, helping them to play their parts and feel comfortable in their new music-making environment.
College Drama Performances and Musical
The College Drama Department presents short productions every year which showcases the talent of drama and music students to our community.
