Musical Opportunities Concerts
Recital Room, Gascoigne Building

These concerts offer our pupils a small
audience and safe platform to run through
new repertoire prior to more demanding
settings such as public concerts and exams.
The Music Department, housed in the
attractive Gascoigne Building, is to have its
first of three phases of renovation unleashed
over the Easter holiday 2015, and we look
forward to the transformation of our Recital
Room and two classrooms as part of this
exciting development.
