Puttin on the Ritz - HSD Orchestra

Recently the orchestra took part in the Interschools Music Competition, it was a great day out and we all had a lot of fun. Ms Phillips picked a fun upbeat song called ‘Puttin on the Ritz’ and we had been practicing for the whole week before hand to perfect it. The nerves started kicking in before we had to go on stage but once we were called on we took a deep breath and soaked in the moment. As we set up our music people were eagerly awaiting, we were introduced by the announcer and before we knew it Ms Phillips was raising the baton and we were off. The song ended and we stood up and bowed. It was so nice to see that everyone had thoroughly enjoyed it. There is just something so satisfying about seeing how all our hard work came together and everything we had worked so hard for came to life. It was a truly magical day and we look forward to our next performance together!
