MUSIC

Music plays an important role in the development of each individual. Research suggests that playing a musical instrument helps to enhance the concentration skills and the co-ordination of children, skills which are relevant throughout their lives and which are transferable to other areas of learning.Performance, the application of the learning of Music, allows students to express themselves using a new and different medium and encourages them to communicate their emotions and imagination through their instrument.

Performance skills are not learned overnight. The confidence and composure of a Year 12 performer is often the culmination of many years of quiet practice and many opportunities to control the nerves associated with performing. Each year, SBIS,Pakho Kalan provides students with the opportunity to develop their performance skills in a safe environment by conducting a programme of concerts and performances. These include the Annual Function, the School Assembly, Festival celebrations and many more events.
