Young voices at the O2

On the evening of Friday 31 January girls from the Prep Department at Pipers Corner School  went to the O2 Arena in London to take part in the annual “Young Voices at the O2” event. Young Voices is the largest school choir organiser in the world and currently organises over 14 capacity concerts a year in the UK & Ireland’s leading Arenas. Each year over 2,500 schools, 90,000 children 6,000 teachers and 120,000 family and friends come together to enjoy music and celebrate singing.

This year’s music ranged from medleys of well-known pop songs like “Hall of Fame” by The Script to traditional folk music from England such as “On Ilkley Moor”. The girls were also very excited to learn they would be performing with Stacey Solomon, singing "The Way We Was" and “Son of a Preacher Man”.

Although it was a long afternoon and evening the girls thoroughly enjoyed themselves and really relished in performing in front of a large audience, singing with thousands of other members of  school choirs.

Mr Woodhall, Assistant Director of Music said, “It is not every day you get to sing on such a big stage where rock stars have performed but our girls did us proud.. It was an electric night of music and performance.”
