Roedean’s musical community comes together to bring you a breath-taking programme of beautiful music inspired by famous works of literature. The orchestras, choirs and concert band will all be performing in our first major concert of the academic year. The theme for this concert has been chosen by a group of senior musicians and the literary inspiration draws on some of the most famous of novelists, playwrights and poets; Shakespeare, Ibsen, Victor Hugo, C S Lewis, Roald Dahl, Lewis Carroll and Jane Austen.
Musical highlights in the programme will include Prokofiev’s March of the Knights from Romeo and Juliet (theme from The Apprentice), Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade Carl Davis’s theme from Pride and Prejudice, Alice’s theme from Alice in Wonderland, a selection from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory plus hit numbers from Les Miserables, Aladdin and Matilda. There will be much to delight all musical tastes in this gala concert and we warmly invite everyone to attend.
