High School Instrumentalists Perform At ISMA

Ryo Shimada ('19), Avi Mehta ('21), and Amora Narain ('22) played with students from five other NYC schools at the Independent School Music Association's (ISMA) Honor Band festival on Sunday, February 24 at Horace Mann School. Students rehearsed on Friday and Saturday at Packer and gave a culminating performance, led by conductor, Heidi I. Sarver, at Horace Mann on Sunday afternoon.

It was a terrific concert--a great example of collaboration, commitment, and excellence both aesthetically and technically. Thanks to Dave Morgan for organizing (and attending in full) this event.

You can see a short concert excerpt here. (Ryo and Amora are in the clarinet section. Avi is playing percussion.)

The next "reach" event for HS instrumentalists will be to participate in the Into the Woods pit band this week.
