Rhythmix
This year the Senior School combined the annual school concert with Inter House Music to create an extravaganza of music and dance. The first song of the night, a brilliant medley by the Hillary choir, set the tone for the whole evening. The audience was then treated to a wonderful array of different styles and genres of music, from rap to classical ballet. Choir Club President Kathleen Renker overcame very tough competition in the Solo Instrumental category to win with a virtuoso performance on her flute. Dance Club President Aron Rahim matched this feat by winning the Solo Dance round, while Emily Hayward won the Solo Singing prize with another superb performance. As ever, the judges were astounded that the students had arranged all the music and choreographed all the dances themselves, so high was the standard.
The end of the Inter House competition allowed the Choir to take the stage, with a superb medley that explored a range of rhythms in choral music from Africa and South America. The show ended with dances ranging from a mime-inspired routine by two clowns to a superb duet by Amar Riyaz and Tamaia Dandeniya that amazed everyone with its athleticism and daring lifts.
