KUCHING – St. Joseph’s Private School brought together art, emotion, and purpose in a spectacular display of talent during its biennial concert, Rhythm and Colour: Wonder – Seeking Truth, Goodness and Beauty, held on 2 and 3 August at Kuching’s Majma Hall.
The vibrant showcase of student performances was a resounding success, with the second night graced by Sarawak Deputy Premier, Datuk Amar Prof. Dr. Sim Kui Hian.
Supported by the Sarawak Arts Council (MSS), the concert featured a rich blend of music, drama, and dance, captivating the audience through powerful storytelling and artistic expression. Each piece resonated with the evening’s theme, taking spectators on a journey through human emotions and experiences.
Since its inception in 2016, Rhythm and Colour has stood out for its meaningful themes and artistic excellence. This year’s concert upheld that legacy, reinforcing the school’s strong tradition in performing arts.
To further that commitment, St. Joseph’s Private School is currently building new facilities dedicated to the arts. Proceeds from this year’s concert will contribute to the School Building Fund.
