Merewether High School Excursion Permission Note
Dear parents of Music students,
I am very pleased to be able to offer elective music students the opportunity to attend the Meet the Music concerts at the Sydney Opera House on four Wednesdays in 2015.
2 March – Rimsky-Korsakov: Sheherazade & Adams: Sheherzade.2 – Dramatic Symphony for violin and orchestra
28 April – Westlake: Babe: Film with Live Orchestra
17 August – Gyger: Acquisition (premiere), Tan Dyn: The Wolf (double bass concerto) & Stravinsky: Petrushka
16 November – Lutoslawski: Sasher Variation for solo cello & Symphony No. 3, Dvorak: Cello Concerto in B minor
We will depart the school in a minibus at 2.30pm and return at approximately 10.30pm. A teacher from the school will drive the minibus. Please note that we only have 20 tickets for the series, so the first to pay will claim the seats! Students studying Music 2 and Stage 5 Music are eligible to attend this excursion. It is expected that all Music 2 students will attend for the full series.
The cost for the excursion is $54 per concert, a total of $216 for the four concerts. The cost includes the tickets to the concerts and the cost of the minibus. Students will also need to take $20 to cover the cost of dinner at an Italian restaurant at Circular Quay before the concert.
School uniform is not required for this excursion. Students should wear uniform to school and get changed into appropriate clothes for a concert at the Opera House at 2.20pm prior to our departure at 2.30pm. Students attending excursions must adhere to the MHS Code of Conduct.
