City’s Annual Fanfare Concert

I was delighted to be a guest at the City’s annual fanfare concert last week. This showcases the incredible musical talent of our pupils. We were treated to classical, jazz, clarsach, rock, gospel, and much more. The best moment was when the leader of the gospel choir persuaded us to stand and move to the sound of the gospel songs. Never has the Usher Hall, usually such a sedate venue, seen such a sight! Normally reserved Edinburgh letting its hair down and going for it. As ever, it is the talents of the young that ask questions of us who think we should know better!
