Music
Marian Catholic College's school band "PowerSauce" was created in late 2008. They formed to participate in the Ashton Music's "Best School Band" competition. The competition ran until June 12 and PowerSauce finished 3rd out of 22. They were placed in the top 5 for Sony Music to have a look at, where the final winner will be judged. On the 17th of June, 2009, it was announced that PowerSauce had won the nation-wide competition.

Famous quotes containing the word music:
“And in the next instant, immediately behind them, Victor saw his former wife.
At once he lowered his gaze, automatically tapping his cigarette to dislodge the ash that had not yet had time to form. From somewhere low down his heart rose like a fist to deliver an uppercut, drew back, struck again, then went into a fast disorderly throb, contradicting the music and drowning it.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“If music in general is an imitation of history, opera in particular is an imitation of human willfulness; it is rooted in the fact that we not only have feelings but insist upon having them at whatever cost to ourselves.... The quality common to all the great operatic roles, e.g., Don Giovanni, Norma, Lucia, Tristan, Isolde, Brünnhilde, is that each of them is a passionate and willful state of being. In real life they would all be bores, even Don Giovanni.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“Nothing is capable of being well set to music that is not nonsense.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
