House Musical 2024

They didn't think it could be done, and to be honest they still had their doubts during the final dress rehearsal. But somehow WING's über-thesps swung pulled it off, whipping both Wonka and Cabaret (sparkling hommages to the film and stage versions) into a foot-stomping, rip-roaring double-bill of theatrical delights, accompanied by a 22-piece orchestra, that lit up the Eton night at the end of a tumultuous half.

House Concert 2023

A wonderful evening, which began in College Chapel with a roaring sea shanty, acapella Beatles and an organ prelude, before venturing across into Upper Schools for a gallimaufry of everything from Telemann via smooth jazz to gangsta rap. (Password = WING's dog)

House Singing Competition 2023

House Shout triumph

Of all the inter-house competitions, the House Shout is the one that everyone wants to win. If is, after all, the only contest in which every single boy in every house participates. Led with verve and aplomb by Gabriel Wilkinson, the Timbralls' chorus sang their hearts out, and the Bay City Rollers' Be My Baby never sounded as good as it did when it was echoing off the walls of School Hall. A magnificent, and well-deserved victory.

Loud and proud

Informal Concert 2023

A more relaxed musical offering in Upper Schools, with a bit of everything from singer-songwriting and comedy skits to hard rock and cool jazz. Oscar M and Josh C brought considerable panache to their highlights reel of Rachmaninov's 2nd piano concerto and Obum gave Lady Gaga a run for a money, while Will H and Kabir made the statues in Upper Schools tremble with their uncompromising thrash ballads.

House Concert 2022

Classical and rock performances from some of the Timbralls' many talented musicians, leavened with comedy and a wonderful whole-house rendition of We'll Meet Again at the end. (Password = M'Dame's dog)
