March Events

This Friday at 19:00 in the Ambrit Theater is the annual Parent Teacher Talent Show, sponsored by the Music Department. We are looking for talented parents and teachers who would like to perform. This is always an evening full of fun and a great way to start the weekend. Early enough, you can go out to dinner afterwards. Bring the whole family! Entrance is €10 for adults and €5 for children over 5. Proceeds go to the Pane Condiviso charity supporting our orphanage in Haiti. See you there, and thank you for supporting our charity.  


On March 13 the spectacular group, Mixed Company, will be coming to Rome for 5 nights. We are looking for home hosts. The singers are university students of Yale University. They have had a number of their concerts cancelled in Greece due to the problems there, and are hoping to perform in Rome in lieu of those concerts. If you can host 2 singers, please let us know. Central families are especially needed. Many thanks for your support!  


On March 17 Grade 4 students will welcome 200 other grade 4 students from Rome International Schools. The event is the annual RISA Music Festival. Students will participate a variety of musical workshops in mixed groups. At the end of the workshops, they will share their workshops with each other. A singalong is planned, and students enjoy making music all day with new friends. This Music Festival is in its 27th year.  


Middle School Honor Choir singers are going to Valencia to participate in the Honor Choir sponsored by the Mediterranean Association of International Schools for five days. The singers perform in German, Spanish, Japanese, Xhosa and English, and will be doing two concerts: one for the American School of Valencia, and one at the beautiful Conservatorio Superiore de Musica de Valencia. Congratulations to our singers who will be representing Ambrit as they sing with 100 others from many countries.
