I would like to thank the following people who have helped to write the music section: Mica Penniman, Alexander Bradford, Sarah Pett, Francis Murphy, Mark Jolly and Charles Corn, as well as those who have been kind enough to write the reviews, especially members of staff.

EDIT: there's more from that page and others!

 

The highlights of the evening for me had to be the two singers, and Tom Nishiwaki's piece Oriental Blues. Naomi Curtis was simply amazing; the clarity of her voice was captivating and a joy to listen to, bringing new life to 'Can't help lovin' that man' for all the audience. Mica Penniman's performance was confident, enjoyable and extremely impressive. He took control of the whole audience with the charisma that shone through his renditions of 'Love me or leave me and Lullaby of Birdland'.

Brilliant and convincing were also the solos from Paola Smith, who very accurately portrayed the cutting and unconcerned secretary of the Consul; charismatic Mica Penniman as a dazed magician, and Ferdinand Koenig, whose masterfully acted and well sung aria ended in a real triumph of bureaucracy over human liberty. spondingly serious and on the whole the scene appeared to give a very favourable impression of opera as dramatic form.

 

haha they like the word 'charisma'

:shocked: Remember where it said in some article that Mica started a magazine called "Pink" at Westminster and he got in trouble for it (or something of the nature)? I was just reading through the 2005 issue of The Elizabethan, and it talks about the magazine "Pink" in an article. http://intranet.westminster.org.uk/documents/elizabethan/magazine/2005/mag.pdf

It just talks about how the author of that article's older sister and her friends decided to start it up, and it was very controversial, and now has become a tradition for sixth form students to do it.
