On 28 May the Eggar’s Music Department took 37 students on a concert tour of Austria. Whilst on tour the Big Band and Choir performed three concerts in St Gilgen, Zell am See and the Mirabell Gardens in Salzburg. All three concerts were well attended and the audience included British and Sri Lankan tourists, who were very complimentary about the students’ musical prowess. Several even asked if the school was a music college! Alongside the concerts, the group had time to visit the world’s largest ice cave in Werfen (a completely magical experience), the Hohensalzburg Fortress via a funicular and for a boat trip around Lake Zell. The students also managed to take advantage of the amazing weather by visiting a water park twice!
