GlastonAbbey 2024: A Wycombe Abbey Music Festival

Pupils stood in a crowd watching their fellow pupil sing on an outside stage. There are bubbles everywhere.

The sun shone on GlastonAbbey, Wycombe Abbey’s very own summer music festival, on the last Sunday of term. The concert featured five of our bands (Take 2, Lockdown, Late April, Theory 5 and Honest Liars) and 13 soloists from UIII-LVI who had been selected from our highly competitive X factor style auditions held earlier in the term.

Bands and soloists performed 27 songs over two hours, using highly varied musical styles such as The Arctic Monkeys, Taylor Swift, One Direction and ABBA. The large outdoor stage looked spectacular, with a very loud sound system and visual stage effects of fire, smoke and bubble machines.

Bands and soloists performed with musical accomplishment and entertained a large audience of pupils, staff and families with confidence and choreographed stage moves.

Well done to all involved – GlastonAbbey keeps getting bigger and better, and we look forward to finding more musical talent for GlastonAbbey 2025.
