STMEA’s First Elementary School All-County Band Festival took place at Newfield High School on April 5th. This festival included Orchestra, Chorus, and Band.
Participating districts included Dryden, Groton, Ithaca, Lansing, Newfield, South Seneca, and Trumansburg. The Elementary School Honor Band was guest conducted by Mr. Roger Chagnon III from Westfield Academy & Central School. These students all spent many hours after school hours preparing their music for their honors band rehearsals and performance. They even worked through a power outage!
The following students participated in the Elementary School Honor Band:
Natalie Jenning (Percussion, 4th), Isabella Banfield (Oboe, 5th), Sarah Wood (Clarinet, 5th), Kora Hopkins (Alto Saxophone, 5th), Mya Carroll (Alto Saxophone, 5th), Isaac Reygers (Trumpet, 5th), Jason Springett (Trombone, 5th), Tyler Rooda-Compton (Tuba, 5th), Sophie Wright (Flute, 6th), Ava Rollins (Clarinet, 6th), Blyss Kelsey (Alto Saxophone, 6th), Jackson Jennings (French Horn, 6th), and Joshua Borst (Tuba, 6th)
