Segovia School of Music celebrated its Annual Day on 09th of September 2012, at the Vidyodaya School Auditorium featuring performances from its young students.

Segovia School of Music, which is located at Anna Nagar, teaches students to play instruments like Guitar, Piano, Keyboard, Violin, Flute, Recorder & Drums and trains students on Carnatic and Western Vocals.
Though it was the first annual day of the School, there were some notable spirited performances from its students.

Immanuel Thiyakeswaran, an 8th grade violinist and ATCL from Trinity College in Piano performed two solo songs, Sonata in No. 52 & Song without the words on the Piano and mesmerized the audience. While it was a smooth performance, Kavya on the drums was like a thunderbolt and shook the audience. Not to mention the standing ovation for her performance. In between the western music performances, group of girls performed the Carnatic song Sree Paadham.

There were totally 48 performances by 63 students in the annual day which lasted for more than three and half hours enjoyed every minute by the crowd. Eight year old Jacob Samuels on the Piano/Keyboard & 6 year old Jonathan on the drums amazed the audience by their performances while Erick Irani, Balaji & S Francis put up a very professional grade solo performances with the Classical Guitar. Last but not the least, Andrew sang and performed “When you say nothing at all” & “Everlasting God” while Pritish was on the lead guitar.

Parents and Students extended their support by staying till the last performance and encouraged the performers. Few enthusiastic parents like Dr. Rekha, Mrs. Georgina & Mrs. Dipti Manoj Pandian went up on the stage and said few kind words about the school and the opportunity provided by the school to the children and wished the school a great future. Mr. Thangadurai Samuel, Principal of the School, delivered the Vote of Thanks and thanked the parents, students and the music teachers for their support and effort.

It was one memorable day for the students for the wonderful opportunity, for the parents to see their children perform on a big day and for the teachers to see their students deliver on a big stage. Going by the standards set today, we are sure to see a grand show in the next annual day come September 2013. Stay Tuned!
