AGS Musicians Tour Italy
At the end of the summer term, a group of 32 Allerton Grange music students, toured Lake Garda, Italy, with Mrs Casey, Miss Gillespie, Mr Sumroy and Mr Shone.
After an epic journey of 28.5 hours by coach from Leeds to Lake Garda, the intrepid travellers reached their hotel.
During the trip, they had the chance to explore Verona, Venice and Malcesine taking in the sights, going on a boat trip and sampling gelato.
Our musicians gave outstanding performances at their concerts at the Palazzo Carlotti, Chiostro Della Pieve Di San Floriano and the Piazzetta Hans Lietzmann – Festival Musicale di Torbole. They showed great resilience under pressure when setting up four different ensembles and all of the equipment that went with such a performance. The trip was a truly enriching and valuable experience for all as they learned about life as a musician on tour.
