Crazy Ties Big Band from Germany at York High

On Tuesday 25 February, 15 music learners from Outeniqua Primary was invited to visit York High to listen to a free concert presented by the Crazy Ties Big Band from Germany. Showcasing instruments like the saxophone, trumpet, trombone, clarinet, flute, piano and drum kit, this event was a fantastic inspiration to members of our own school band and other music learners. With grateful thanks to George Music Society and York High for thinking of us!
