Last Night of the Proms

Archbishop Beck Catholic College came alive with red, white and blue as we presented our annual Last Night of the Proms concert at 7.30 p.m in the College’s Sports Hall.

The Music Department was on top form, playing at their best, said their music director/conductor, Bruce Hicks. In the second half of the show, the Senior Concert Band led the audience in renditions of all the favourite Last Night of the Proms Medley’s, and adding to the spectacle was the usual display from the audience of their red, white and blue colours, in the form of coloured wigs, hats, flags and tinsel.

A highlight of this concert was the Performing of Highland Cathedral with Bagpipe accompanimen and the teachers’ usual rendition of the Teachers’ Chorus. For Year 13 vocal soloist, Emma this was a particularly emotional evening as it was her final appearance as the College’s Britannia.
