Chaminade Christmas Concert 2019
To celebrate the Christmas season, the Chaminade Jazz band performed in the 2019 Chaminade Christmas Concert.
Songs including What a Wonderful World, Superstition, Megalovania, Just the Two of Us, as well as Christmas songs like Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and All I Want for Christmas is You were practice for weeks and performed.
This incredible concert only shows some of the potential that I and my fellow musicians have in the future. Through practice and hard work, this group of musical brothers is destined for greatness.
The following videos are some of the notable performances from the night.

BARFLIES IN THE CAF
As a musician, I am not only responsible for performing music, but composing music as well.
​
The following is a piece I wrote myself for a final music exam, titled Barflies in the Caf.
​
Inspiration is derived from one pf my favourite Jazz group, Royal Crown Revue and their songs "Barflies at the Beach" and "Hey Pachuco!".
​
I hope any musicians can appreciate this solo, Jazz trombone piece.

Brave New World
​
A photo essay, summarizing a future society manipulated by the government through pleasure written by Aldous Huxley.
Pain doesn't exist.
Fear doesn't exist.
But neither does literature, self-expression or individuality.
Can this place really be called a Utopia? Or maybe
this planet is just another world's hell...
