From the Principal
A warm welcome to our major music
performance for 2024.
We are proud to present this uplifting
program at the iconic Melbourne Recital
Centre, featuring repertoire from the great
masters alongside artistic visionaries of today.
A world premiere is a seminal moment in the life of every composer and
performer and our musicians and guest artists are thrilled to present Give
Us Cause by alumnus, Jem Herbert, a work commissioned for our VCASS
community, by our VCASS community.
At VCASS, our vision for excellence in artistry is underpinned by our
connection to the rich artistic and collaborative culture surrounding
our school. The generosity and support of this community enables our
students to develop beyond their expectations.
Such an ambitious project as this evening would not be possible without
vision, passion and a great deal of commitment. Therefore, we wish to
thank our Music Team and Guest Artists, our entire VCASS staff, and you,
our parents and friends, for attending this evening and for supporting our
program and the inspiring young adults on stage tonight.
To our VCASS students, it is a privilege to be involved in the lives of such
impressive custodians of the future. We are so proud of you.
Enjoy this special evening.
Dr. Karen Schofield
