In Middle School, students develop their appreciation of musical genres and have lots of hands-on experience working collaboratively with classmates to explore rhythm and create compositions.

Highlights of the year include the Christmas and Spring Concerts. Throughout the year, students have every opportunity to sing in the choir or play in ensembles and chamber groups.

The “state-of-the-art” Performing Arts Centre reflects the quality and variety of music opportunities available to students, from the 20 unit midi-lab (computer and music recording lab) to the spectacular music rehearsal space which contains a grand piano, full drum kit, electronic pianos, amplifiers, guitars, bass guitars and orchestral percussion, 4 practice rooms and of course our 400-seat theatre.

The music programme encompasses a wide range of creative experiences which include music appreciation, IB music, AP music, Choir, Chamber Orchestra, Jazz Band, Vocal Jazz, Girls’ Choir, Chamber Choir, and the opportunity to audition for the AMIS [Association for Music in International Schools] International Honor Band, Choir, Girls Choir, Vocal Jazz, Jazz Band and Orchestra Festivals that are held throughout the world. Performance opportunities include recitals, musicals and concerts throughout the year, both within school and for the community.
