Having won the local Schools’ Chamber Music Contest in Timaru, the combined Timaru Boys' and Timaru Girls’ quartet of Grace Beatson, Caleb Nicolson, Connor Rabbidge and Lucas Rabbidge competed in the Southern Regional Final in Christchurch where they competed against numerous groups of an extremely high calibre.
Congratulations to Grace on the success of her original composition A Soldier’s Journey that explores the emotional evolution of a World War I soldier. Although not selected to progress to the next stage of the competition, the group received high praise for the “strength of their composition and recital technique”.
With 400 performance groups entering this competition nationally, The Flying Shoes are to be commended for making it to the top 36. Check out the newspaper article at: https://tinyurl.com/The-Flying-Shoes-Success
