Welcome to the Music Department!

Warminster Singers @ St Mary's Cathedral, San Francisco

The Warminster School Music Department is a fast pace, dynamic and ever expanding department. We are privileged to work with talented pupils and dedicated staff - together producing concerts, shows and other events of an extremely high standard.

We are delighted to welcome Mr Robert Corrigan as our new music teacher and Mr James Taylor as our new music placement student. We have a busy year ahead with our production of The Mikado in Febuary, numerous concerts at the Athenaeum and also our Easter Holiday Project production of Les Miserables.

We look forward to welcoming you to one of our concerts or shows in the very near future.

The Mikado Review

mikado_1_3.png
The Warminster School production of the Mikado at the Athenaeum in early February followed in the footsteps of The Pirates of Penzance staged two years ago in being another magnificent tribute to the creative collaboration of teaching staff and pupils.  

 

Academic Music

Music is taught to all students in Year 7,8 & 9, with pupils then having the choice to continue with the subject at GCSE level in Year 10.

After GCSE, pupils are able to take AS and A Level, or can choose music as part of the International Baccalaureate.

"Read More" to find out more about academic music lessons, and other resources including study guides for GCSE and A-Level.

Beyond the Classroom

Warminster School Music Department thrives on the participation of pupils and staff in its many ensembles, from our larger groups such as Warminster Singers and Concert Band, to our more specialist groups such as Chamber Ensemble.

'Read More' to find details about each ensemble, and the 2011-2012 rehearsal schedule.

Facilities
The music department is situated in two buildings on site; Church Street and Boniface. Teaching takes place in both buildings, as do rehearsals. Often, the department uses local theatres and churches to perform to larger audiences, and each year "takes over" the Sports Hall for the annual Cabaret evening in March.
