The Kilbreda College Music Co‑curricular Department is delighted to congratulate Miranda N from Year 8 and her piano teacher, Ms Paulina Vayenas, on Miranda’s outstanding achievement of a Pass with Honours in her AMEB Grade 7 Piano Repertoire Examination.

This examination was completed as a video exam, recorded onsite at Kilbreda College in our Auditorium, before being forwarded to the Australian Music Examinations Board (AMEB) for external assessment. Some students find this format to be a more comfortable and convenient option; however, it still requires exceptional preparation, focus and performance confidence!

Miranda presented a demanding and stylistically diverse program, demonstrating technical mastery and musical maturity across several musical periods. Her performance repertoire included:

• List A: Sinfonia 15 – J.S. Bach
• List B: Allegro moderato – Franz Schubert
• List C: Où l’on entend une vieille boîte – Déodat de Séverac
• Extra pieces: Sonata – Domenico Cimarosa and Canción – Manuel de Falla

We also congratulate Miranda on her strong dedication to regular and focused practice, which was instrumental in achieving this excellent result. Her commitment and perseverance are a wonderful example of what can be achieved through consistent effort and a genuine love of music.

We proudly acknowledge the guidance and expertise of Ms Paulina Vayenas, whose ongoing support and high expectations continue to inspire excellence in our piano students.

If any other students are interested in learning an instrument or undertaking an AMEB examination, families are encouraged to contact the Music Department or speak with a private tutor to discuss current opportunities and pathways available at Kilbreda College.
