Our Lessons Without Walls have so far been a huge success. We received numerous comments from learners, staff and parents about how lovely the arrival at school has been when accompanied by music. The children have also learnt valuable performing techniques and gained confidence with the support of our music teachers.
With this in mind we are bringing to you our 'Lessons without Walls Season'. From now until the end of term each Friday morning, you will be welcomed to school by our amazing young musicians showcasing a variety of musical interludes for your enjoyment. Various musical genres will be presented by learners from across the different phases of our school as they take part in their instrumental lessons at the start of the school day.
This morning the 'Season' went off with a bang by our Nexus Drummers! Please click here for a video montage of our amazing drummers.
Upcoming dates are:
27 Nov - Piano Learners
4 Dec - IGCSE Musicians
11 Dec - IB Diploma Learner James - piano
18 Dec - Nexus Music brings to you - Christmas!
This term's Instrumental Recitals will be 'live' in the new Nexus Auditorium. We are very excited to be able to provide this essential platform for our budding young musicians which will help them develop musical skills and nurture self confidence. Due to Covid Restrictions we are unable to open this up to parents, instead other learners will make up the audience. We will however be recording each learner and compiling a final recital video for our whole community to view.
Our Instrumental Recitals are open to all whether you have lessons inside or outside of school. Learners in school will begin conversations with their tutors, however anyone who wishes to participate and has lessons outside of school music email Ms Clare at music@nexus.edu.sg by Thursday, 26 November.
Please click on the videos of our recent recitals below for you to view.

We are super excited to announce our new music initiative perfectly timed to help our families come together in the spirit of Christmas! Through virtual singing we aim to bring together as many people from our Nexus Community and you are invited to be part of our Nexus Family Choir this Christmas.
Through virtual lessons with our amazing music teachers, you will learn to sing a Christmas song - a cover of Jonas Brothers' song 'Like it's Christmas', with a Nexus twist! Next week our team will host 4 'live' lessons via Zoom. You may opt into as many as you like; on your own or as a whole family. We want to bring you together through singing. Additional support with sing along tracks, backing tracks, sheet music and lyrics is all provided for you via our very own 'Everyone Can Sing' website; just click on the RSVP button below.
Once we have fine tuned the song, we will ask you to record an audio track and a video to be sent through to us. Entries will then be compiled into our very own Nexus Music Video.
With over 100 families already signed up, this is going to be fun!
