We even had a reminder of sunnier times with Eilidh’s version of George Gershwin’s “Summertime”. The trombone rang through the hall beautifully.<\/p>\n The concert concluded with a wonderful sense of togetherness as the Community String Group and Choir<\/strong> led We Wish You a Merry Christmas<\/em>, followed by Euan H.<\/strong> leading a heartfelt Auld Lang Syne<\/em>, reminding us all of the importance of kindness and community at this time of year.<\/p>\n A huge thank you goes to the Fife Music Service instructors<\/strong>, the KHS Tech Team<\/strong> from the Science Department, and the Music Department staff<\/strong> for their dedication and support.
