IRIS 2008

ARIA Music and Theatre Conservatory holds an annual event IRIS, showcasing performances by students across all departments of music and drama. The focus is to ensure maximum participation and the show is designed to enable this.

The first part of the show is called MUSIC METTLE wherein all beginner level students of Western and Indian music perform in groups as well as individually.

The interim is mostly a special presentation by students of Speech and Drama, staging their play or performing solo Musical Theatre pieces.

The second half of the show is the BEST OF THE FEST- a competition of the best performances as a band or group. Students of the school form ensembles and vie for prizes in the best band, best vocalist, best instrumentalist (guitar, keyboard, drums, bass) categories.

The competition is judged by prominent members of the music fraternity. We have had in the past Subir Malik of Parikrama, Aditi Singh Sharma & Gaurav Balani of Groove Adda, Aunindo & Ujjwal of Advaita, renowned bass player Brennon Denfer and Benjamine Pinto of Euphoria in the jury.
