Redlands Vocal Competition

On Monday evening, the Redlands Vocal Competition was held in the Edwards Auditorium, featuring Yr 7-12 finalists who presented a diverse range of vocal repertoire in creating an outstanding evening of musical performances. Adjudicated by Mr Darren Mapes, the skills of students in all divisions was exceptional and is a credit to the singing ability of each finalist and the guidance provided by their vocal tutors. Particular thanks to Mr Diego Iddaraga and Mr Damon Wade for their exceptional accompaniment of the finalists and in supporting the students throughout rehearsals leading into the competition. Thank you to the Music Department for support of this annual competition, with auditions managed by Ms Arienne Brodie and Mr Darren Kuilenburg. We would like to thank our special guests Mr Matthew Bentley, Ms Sarah McGarry and Mr Stephen Webber who awarded the place-getters with medallions and trophies.
