Jingle All The Way: Celebrating Gresham’s Musical Talent
10 December 2024
Christmas is a magical time for musicians, and on 6th December, the Gresham’s Music Department brought the season to life with our annual Jingle All The Way concert. This festive extravaganza was a joyous culmination of a term filled with incredible musical achievements, showcasing the dedication and talent of our pupils.
The evening was packed with musical delights, from timeless classics like Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas and White Christmas to performances of Silent Night by the Flute Choir and Winter from Max Richter’s Recomposed Vivaldi.
Jazz, strings, brass, and voices united to bring the magic of Christmas alive, with performances ranging from The Polar Express Medley to Fairy Tale of New York, performed by Year 13 vocalists with the Concert Band and String Ensemble. The atmosphere was electric, and the shared joy of music-making was palpable throughout the evening.
The audience were also treated to the world premieres of the Gresham’s Guys and Gresham’s Girls singles. The Gresham’s Girls recorded an enchanting and ethereal version of Dancing in the Dark by Bruce Springsteen, performed by Sophia P, Tilly R, Jemima W, Sophie L, Olga, B, Emily M, Reva S, Naomi HS, Zinny B and Mia W.
The Gresham’s Guys recorded a fresh take on Never Ever by All Saints with and features the vocals of Josh K, Bruno B, Milan H, Rory R, Finn S, Albert W, Dougie L, Noah P and Seb C. These singles are now available to stream on all digital platforms and on our Gresham’s Media YouTube Channel.
