First Arete Grammy Festival Ended Successfully!
2023-05-25

The "student-teacher collaboration" is one of the main features of the Arete College. Students can give full play to their creativity and organise a variety of cultural and sporting activities. 

Following the student-run Christmas party and campaign, the first Arete "Grammy" festival came to a perfect end. The crown of the goddess, the long unruly hair, the angry breaking sound, the attitude of the people of Arete!

As an up-and-comer, 

Arete Grammy presented a feast for all audiences 

with magnificent lighting and choreography, 

a superb panel of judges, 

and the most dazzling and superb finalists and productions!

The three groups chose purely instrumental music 

and conquered the hearts of the audience and the judges 

with their exquisite skills and delicate interpretations.


Jazz: Fletcher’s Song In Club by piano and drum


Piano Solo: Afternoon

▲ Playing discs, original arrangements


More contestants chose to sing, 

either with their sweet voices or with the style of a diva, 

some with guitars, drums and other instruments, 

and some with their hair to interpret Rock'n'Roll!

but also showed courage and attitude!

Both groups of male contestants coincidentally chose to perform

 two classic tracks by Eason Chan, the E God, in Cantonese.

The female contestants were even more beautiful and sweet, 

with the Sweet Girls melting the crowd with their song 'Lemon Tree', 

and the Queen singing and dancing with their song 'No Way', 

a song that sealed the deal.

The pressure went straight to the finale with the band 

who chose the classic 'Yellow' to close out the festival!


Thank you to the two presidents of the Music Club, 

and to all the staff who worked so hard to make the Grammy Festival a success!
