Key Music Australia Showcase

All Band students| From 8 Primary Schools |4 huge band performances|1 incredible night of music

Join us for a very special evening as we celebrate 20 years of providing music education in primary schools.

This is a showcase of Key Music Australia talent, and is sure to be a super fun night.

For the very first time, Key Music Australia students from across our 8 primary schools will join together and perform onstage in the Concert Hall at The Concourse, Chatswood. Students will be grouped into 1 of 4 performance groups, and every performer will have the rare opportunity to play for around 20 minutes each in an extended band performance on a professional stage.

To help us prepare for such a large event, we require every band student to confirm their attendance for this event. The deadline is Friday 6th September. Please click here to complete a Confirmation of Attendance Form. You must complete a separate Confirmation of Attendance Form for each child.

About the Showcase:

Students are required to bring their music and instrument (keyboards, amps, drums and percussion instruments will be provided and percussion players just bring drumsticks). Performers will be grouped into 1 of 4 performance groups and each group will have extended performance time onstage at this iconic venue. You will be advised closer to the event about which performance group your child has been placed into.

There is no cost to perform.

Parents will be able to purchase a limited number of audience tickets. We expect the event to sell out, and it is possible that not all parents will be able to purchase a ticket. Tickets will go on sale in late September. More information will be communicated about ticket sales closer to the time, but we expect tickets to be priced around $30-$40 each. To allow as many parents as possible to attend, there will be a cap on how many tickets you can purchase initially.
