BA (Hons) Music Class of 2020

Loading...

Hi everyone!

We're the 4th years of the BA (Hons) Music course.

The past four years have been filled with fun and laughter. Although we are sad we don't get to experience the typical 'we finished college' celebrations, we have truly enjoyed our time at W.I.T. and appreciate all the work everyone has done during these strange times.

This yearbook is a showcase of all our hard work, our time on the course and the fun times we've had as a class group.

Enjoy!

During my time at WIT I've made some absolutely amazing memories. From wasting my time in the canteen with my friends to attending lectures on the history of The Beatles and Jazz! I never could have dreamt what I would do and study in this course but it exceeded my expectations and I'm so grateful to have experienced it.

I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do in the future, the plan as of now is to eventually open up my own school but we will see how it goes! For the more immediate future (once this bloody lockdown in lifted) I just want to get back into performing in musicals :)

Becca Laste

I majored in Dissertation and minored in Performance.

My time at WIT has been the best 4 years of my life!

I'd do it all over if I could... except for the work (:

Have you met my good friend Lin-Manuel Miranda?

Starting September 2020!

Most likely to be found taking a nap on the canteen couch or on a practice room floor...

Doireann O'Carroll

Hi!
My name is Doireann and I'm a final year student in the music course in W.I.T

I did a major in composition and a minor in dissertation. My instrument was viola but we don't talk about that...

My four years on the course has been unreal. I've gotten so many skills which allowed me to take up awesome opportunities. I'm so grateful for the course in that I've made so many close friends and also that I took my love of music to a higher level.

As for future plans, I'm hoping to do a masters in composition as well as teaching in a music school or even open up one myself, wherever I land in the world. Here is my final composition:

Féile Na Aos Sídhe

Sara Fitzgerald

I'm going to miss the craic the most!

Hi my name is Sara and I majored in composition! The first piece I wrote is called The Elephant in the Room and the second is called The Lucky Escape. I minored in music technology and in the second semester wrote a piece for Spraoi called Magpie.

The last few years have been amazing, I've met some great people who I know will be friends for life. I couldn't of asked for anyone better to spend my final year with.

Hi my name is Toni Doran. I am in my final year of BA (Hons) Music Degree. I specialised in major performance and minor composition. My experience in Waterford has been amazing. I have made some great friends for life.

In 2019 & 2020 I was awarded a recognition award from WIT's Vikings Sports & Societies.

Year 4 Performances & Compositions

Irish Traditional Music Society

The Irish Traditional Music Society was re-installed in 2019. Fourth Moon visted us and gave us a masterclass.

My plans for the future is to study primary education. I also hope to open a music school in my area. This course has given me great opportunities and experiences over the last four years. Thank you to all the lecturers for their hard work and commitment over the four years.

Dear Music at W.I.T.
The last four years have been full of fun moments, moments of bonding and some pretty cool moments. My college experience in WIT can't be defined by the work I handed up or pieces I played in my eyes. It was the snapshots of time that changed me into the man I became. Music at W.I.T. really did afford me many opportunities and facilities, but my classmates highlight them so excellently so I wanted to use this space to commemorate the journey I took and enjoy these three pictures representing only a fraction of the many moments over the last few years.
Love,
Ross Kavanagh
