Music Technology

The Music department at Diss High School is housed in a purpose built music suite with four adjoining practice rooms and enjoys good facilities.  This includes 10 computers with Sibelius and Cubase 5 software installed.  There are also two obiles, one of which is a dedicated practice room.

We are visited daily by members of our peripatetic music team who offer tuition in Brass, Strings, Percussion/Drum Kit, Woodwind, Guitar and Voice.

We are an extremely active department with music making activities to suit all tastes - orchestra, jazz band, choir, keyboard club, guitar club, theory club and a vatiety of ensemble groups.

There is ample opportunity for pupils to perform in public at regular concerts (including an annual three day music festival) an events, both in school and in the local community.

Music students are also encouraged to be involved in our annual productions which have included: The Little Shop of Horrors; Grease; Blues Brothers; Return to the Forbidden Planet; Sweet Charity; We Will Rock You and Hairspray.
