Spring Rhapsody 2024

The Bur Oak Music Department was pleased to present our spring music showcase, Spring Rhapsody 2024 at the Flato Markham Theatre for the Performing Arts.  The concert was held Thursday, May 16th, and featured all our core performing ensembles, jazz ensembles, and selected solo and small ensembles.  The concert also featured very special guests, the Fred Varley Public School Concert Band who joined the Bur Oak Music Programme onstage to showcase their talent and passion for music.

The concert was an amazing celebration of the Arts, and also honoured the memory of an important music educator in YRDSB and at Bur Oak Music.  Mr. Jim Rueckert passed away in October 2023 following a brave journey with glioblastoma.  This year's Spring Rhapsody was dedicated to his memory, with the Grade 9 Concert Band performing a tribute to Mr. Rueckert.

We hope you enjoyed a beautiful evening of music and memories. Thank you to all those who joined us for Spring Rhapsody 2024.
