Secondary  Professional  Music  School  Affiliated  to  Shanghai  Conservatory  of  Music  The  predecessor  of  Secondary  Professional  Music  School  Affiliated  to  SCOM  (SPMS)  was  a  music  junior  school  founded  by  He  Luting,  people’s  musician,  theorist  and  educator,  in  1951.  The  SPMS  was  officially  established  in  1953  and  was  denominated  the  Secondary  Music  School  Affiliated  to  the  Branch  Institute  in  East  China  of  Central  Conservatory  of  Music.  In  1956,  the  school  changed  its  name  into  the  Secondary  Professional  Music  School  Affiliated  to  Shanghai  Conservatory  of  Music.      The   SPMS   has   seven   professions,   namely   keyboard   instruments   playing,   orchestral  instruments  playing,  Chinese  musical   instruments  playing,  musicology   (composition),  voice  opera,  musical   instruments   repairs,  and  modern   instruments  playing.  The  school  opens   to  students  nationwide,   including  students  from  Hong  Kong,  Macao,  and  Taiwan,  as  well  as  a  portion  of  foreign  students.  Now  the  number  of  internal  students  has  exceeded  500.    SPMS  is  eager  to  make  progress  in  its  development.  It  has  been  granted  a  “Four  Times  First  Prize   Winner   in   International   Music   Competitions   in   Three   Years”   plaque   by   Ministry   of  Culture  in  1993,  and  that  was  the  first  time  the  Ministry  of  Culture  has  issued  plaque  to  its  subordinated  art   colleges.   In  2001,  SPMS  was  evaluated   to  be  a  key   secondary  vocational  school  (of  arts)  of  national  level  by  Ministry  of  Education  and  Ministry  of  Culture.      Marion  City  Band  and  Warriparinga  Brass  

Marion   City   Band   is   a   vibrant  and   progressive   community  brass   band,   performing   music  in   a   wide   variety   of   styles   for  many  occasions.  Proudly   supported   by   the   City  of   Marion,   the   band   may   be  found   performing   in   both  metropolitan  and  country  areas  throughout  the  year.  

As  a   regular  attendee  at  major  competitive   brass   band   events,   the  members   can   be   found   playing   under   the   banners   of  Marion  City  Band  and  Warriparinga  Brass.  With  numbers   increasing  over  recent  times   it   is  with  great  excitement  that  Marion  City  Band  now  supports  the  growth  and  development  of  three  competition  bands  along  with  a  non-­‐competitive  training  band.  

 

 

Adelaide  Male  Voice  Choir    The  Adelaide  Male  Voice  Choir  (originally  known  as  the  Adelaide  English  Glee  Society)  was  established   in  1884  and  has  maintained  a   fine   tradition  over   the  years  of  good   fellowship  and  good  singing.    It  is  at  the  heart  of  community  music-­‐making  in  Adelaide  and  is  active  in  supporting   charities   and   community   projects   through   fund-­‐raising   concerts.     The   choir  performs  a  wide  range  of  repertoire  and  frequently  features  up-­‐and-­‐coming  young  Adelaide  singers  as  soloists  at  its  concerts.    Members  of  the  choir  come  from  a  variety  of  backgrounds  and  professions  and  are  united  by  their  joy  in  singing.    They  take  pleasure  in  living  up  to  the  choir’s  motto  “Celebrating  choral  excellence”.    William  Shaw  OAM  –  Conductor  and  Director  of  Music  For   the   past   27   years,   the   Adelaide   Male   Voice   Choir   has   been   under   the   baton   of   the  experienced   and   respected   conductor   William   Shaw,   and   the   choir’s   musical   skills   have  flourished   under   his   leadership.     He   is   a   professional  music   educator   and   a   noted   choral  conductor,   singer   and   pianist   with   a   strong   commitment   to   both   music   education   and  music-­‐making  in  the  wider  community.    He  has  always  been  involved  with  music  projects  for  all   ages,   from   presenting   programs   and   courses   for   young   children   to   conducting   various  choirs,   bands,   ensembles   and   orchestras   for   participants   of   all   ages   at   professional   and  amateur   levels.     He   was   awarded   an   OAM   in   2011   for   his   services   to   music,   especially  through  the  Adelaide  Male  Voice  Choir.                                Jamble  Jamble   is   Woodville   High   School’s   frontline   small   jazz   ensemble.   The   students   are   taken  from   the   Stage   Band,   and   given   an   opportunity   to   learn   the   art   of   small   jazz   ensemble  playing,  with  an  emphasis  on  different   styles  and   improvisation.  This   year’s  ensemble  has  focused  on  a  variety  of  styles  and  is  currently  exploring  60s  and  70s  jazz.
