This remarkable violinist at my school is only 13 and we think she’s destined for a long solo career. Anyone fancy reviewing an unusual version of this gorgeous piece?

What a Sunday - our String Octet have just been announced as winners of the U16 category of the @ProCordaCMF National Chamber Music competition! A very proud Head of Strings and Director of Music, and huge congratulations to these talented young musicians.
Amazing Mendelssohn from this group of talented players and all under 16! It’s a privilege to coach you all.

Great to have so many Grade 8 pieces in one collection. It really helps nail down Performance Grade choices!

We’ll be releasing a new video from November’s Early Music Concert every 2 days before the full playlist next Friday. Today’s is Sinfonia’s performance of the 1st movt. of Bach’s 3rd Brandenburg Concerto. A wonderful piece, and some wonderful playing! youtu.be/C-J3omYjKSE?si…
It was wonderful to take 12 of our violinists and violists to @RCMLondon yesterday to attend a Violin Masterclass with @tasminlittle. A great experience, and incredibly informative for these young musicians. Huge thanks to Tasmin, and to RCM for hosting us!
It’s such a privilege to hear students doing their absolute best. Fancy a little insight into my day?

W/c March 6th is our annual Chamber Music week, with each department presenting a concert of small-scale instrumental music. Do join us for one (or all?) of these shorter, early-evening concerts if you can!
Year 3 strings today - London Symphony Orchestra of the future?!

I’m so thrilled our FlexiViolin volumes have come out! Lots of wonderful duets/solos/piano accompaniment by famous and less familiar composers. Paul Harris and I had a wonderful time arranging them - thank you Faber!
Brilliant concert with amazingly talented and hardworking pupils.

A great day of vocal workshops with @RussHepplewhite working with our Year 7s using his and @HelenEastman’s book of newly written songs #TheHistoryExpress. They seemed particularly keen on the song about the Dinosaurs - clearly engaged by new meeting old! @stainerandbell
The whole string set is complete! Thanks to the brilliant Paul Harris and fellow Eltham College teacher/consultant Dan James for Bass Basics. Hurrah!

Ok. Will admit I’m now showing off by tweeting this, but honestly 50 violinists and a dozen cello players off photo. Bursting with pride at the breadth of talent and enthusiasm
Thrilled to hear #BGT star singer @maxwellthorpe saying that working for his aural tests as a teenager in his clarinet exams made him realise he could sing! He’s got my vote for the final…
Having a brilliant weekend with head of strings colleagues - so much in common and so much to learn from each other. Absolutely inspiring!
