We are thrilled to celebrate the incredible achievement of ten students from our Romans and Leeds classes, who took part in a spectacular performance at the Woodville Halls in Gravesend earlier this month.
In a truly unique and enriching collaboration with The Big Reveal charity, our students performed alongside a live orchestra in a show called, Intergalactic Emergency! This event was a culmination of months of hard work by students to perfect their skills using innovative music technology.
Mastering the Soundbeam and Creating an Atmosphere
Leading up to the performance, the students worked on their musical skills, with a specific focus on mastering the Soundbeam. This advanced piece of equipment uses ultrasonic sensors to translate movement into sound, allowing every student to actively participate and play along with the live orchestra. Their commitment and focus were truly remarkable.
Our young performers were instrumental in setting the scene for the audience. As guests entered the auditorium, the Romans and Leeds students used various button triggers to create a captivating ‘intergalactic ambience’. This pre-show soundscape immersed the audience immediately, setting a brilliant tone for the cosmic adventure that followed.
A Truly Unique and Proud Moment
This performance represented a genuinely unique and pioneering experience for our students. For many, it was their first time participating in a performance of this scale and nature, blending live orchestral music with cutting-edge technology.
We could not be more proud of their dedication, resilience, and phenomenal achievements. Their participation was a testament to their hard work and the power of inclusive arts, leaving an unforgettable impression on everyone who attended.
