125 Anniversary Concert
4 April 2022 - All
At the beginning of March, our fantastic musicians put on a wonderful evening of musical performance in our Archer Recital Hall as part of Wycombe Abbey’s 125 celebrations.
There was a real buzz of excitement as the musicians tuned up for a very special premier by Upper Sixth pupil Rosalie – an Overture based on the School song In Fide Vade. This concert was also special for four Upper Sixth soloists who were given the opportunity to perform with the orchestra. They rose to the occasion, spurred on by the usual Wycombe Abbey vocal support from their peers in the Hall.
There was yet another premier, this time for Chapel Choir with O Be Joyful by Becky McGlade, a special commission for our 125th year. There were also accomplished performances from Chamber Orchestra, Symphony Orchestra and Sinfonia.
The evening displayed the amazing talent and hard-working pupils we have at Wycombe Abbey. The electric atmosphere proved that Music at Wycombe Abbey is alive and well.
