The string quartet performed a few songs, taught the students how to make a rhythm and gave a lesson in classical instruments.
Craven Creek Music president, Greg Lindsay said it’s all part of introducing classical music to primary school students.
For the past six years, the concerts have been performed by professional musicians and Greg thinks its important to expose regional children to a high level of classical chamber music.
For the students and most of the teachers, it was the first time they had seen a string quartet, let a long conduct one, which is exactly what a few of the students got the chance to do.
In the past the musicians have visited Gloucester Public School and St Joseph’s Primary School but this year Greg was making good on a promise he had made to a BPS parent a few years ago to bring them to the school.
