The PRG Music department impress with their first concert of the year
Op Sondag, 6 Maart, het die PRG-musiekdepartment weer eens beïndruk met hul konsert “Baroque to Big Band”. Die uitmuntende uitvoerings van die PRG-Sanggroep, die PRG-orkes en die Madelein van Rooyen String Studio (wat spelers uit Paul Roos, Bloemhof en Rhenish insluit) was ‘n klinkklare aanduiding van PRG se musiekdepartement se voortdurende ontwikkeling. Beide uitverkoopte konserte is aangebied by die Spier Konferensiesentrum en is moontlik gemaak deur Atterbury Property. Die orkes,bestaande uit 46 leerders, en die PRG sanggroep met sy 12 talentvolle Paul Roos leerders het opgetree.
Die standaard van die opvoering en die produksiegehalte van “Baroque to Big Band” skep groot afwagting en opgewondenheid vir die langverwagte PRG-Atterbury Musiekfees in Augustus. Die hoogtepunt van dié konsert is die 500 seuns en 60-lid orkes wat die verhoog met die bekende Coenie de Villiers en Corlea Botha gaan deel. Nog ‘n opwindende musikale geleentheid is die Drostdy Soliste Kompetisie (8-10 Maart) waarin talentvolle PRG-leerders ook deelneem.
Koormusiekliefhebbers kan verder uitsien na die jaarlikse PR- beKOOR konsert op die 20ste April 2022. Dit sluit skoolkore van die gemeenskap in.
