Music by Moonlight was founded a decade ago by Normanhurst West Public School’s Musical Director, Mr Dave Odams. This event is an annual highlight for all schools involved and unites local primary school bands, who perform both individually and then together as one spectacular supergroup of around 150 talented young musicians. The event creates a powerful sense of community and for most of these students, this will be the largest band they have ever played in.

This year’s concert will showcase the Concert Band and String Ensemble from Normanhurst West Public School, alongside bands from Turramurra, Thornleigh West, Warrawee, Hornsby Heights, and Pennant Hills. The students have devoted countless hours rehearsing to deliver an exceptional performance.

Community members are warmly invited to attend and support our local school band programs, which require tremendous dedication and effort from the students involved, as well as the Parents and Citizens Associations that run them.

This year is the 10th anniversary of this fantastic music event and we are expecting 7 bands from six local schools to attend and showcase their talents. Bands present will be from the following Public Schools:

• Normanhurst West;
• Thornleigh West;
• Pennant Hills;
• Hornsby Heights;
• Warrawee, and
• Turramurra

There will also be food stalls and Photo Booth on site during the event.
