Last week Paige M. performed as concertmaster for the Dulles HS Sinfonietta (conducted by Michael Isadore). Paige is in her first year at Dulles High School and performed as concertmaster of the highest orchestra at Dulles Middle School last year. Keep it up, Paige!
This Saturday, Ayushi had some wonderful news — the most recent chair test placed her as concertmaster in her Philharmonic class at Sartartia Middle School! This is her first concertmaster assignment, so we’re all so excited for her.
Enara R., 6th grade, keeps the good news coming with another major grade of “100” in her orchestra class at Sartartia. Sounds like her practicing spree is really paying off!
Isaac R., 6th grade, moved up to the first violin section in the Dulles Middle School Sinfonietta. He happily announced today in lesson that he is the only 6th grader in the section!
Sophie V., 10th grade, qualified for the top orchestra at Clements thanks to the results of her region and area auditions! Sophie will join Chris, also a sophomore, in the highest Clements orchestra.
