Chamber Choir Visit to Prague   Chamber Choir Trip to Prague
 Chamber Choir on a Boat Trip  Chamber Choir Visit to Prague
The Chamber Choir and staff are still riding the crest of a wave after their return from an extremely successful weekend of concerts and fun in Prague, during which they sang in the Tynska Cathedral in front of Bishop Vaklav Mali, a national hero of the Velvet Revolution.  There were also opportunities for relaxation although they treated an audience to an impromptu concert on a riverboat trip. 

   
The Music Department organised a fantastic Prep Schools' Orchestral Day involving 170 children from 9 schools.  At the end of the day, all the children gathered together in the John Leakey Hall to perform the three pieces they had been rehearsing during the day.
