Strong showing at The Big Sing regionals

Posted on July 24, 2024

A record number of singers represented Macleans College at The Big Sing regionals this year, held at the Auckland Town Hall in the latter half of Term 2.

The Big Sing is a regional secondary schools choral festival that takes place across 10 centres, involving around 8,000 students from over 200 schools.

Over 320 students performed in four choirs; Macleans College Chorale, Knights of the Castle, Aria and Aria Junior. Directors, Mrs McNabb and Mrs Swasbrook, provided extensive training through Terms 1 and 2, enabling the choirs to pull off an eclectic mix of repertoire that told stories from love and beauty through to the usefulness of Duct tape!

Macleans College Chorale has subsequently been invited to perform at the Big Sing Cadenza festival which will be held in Rotorua in late August.
