Honors Orchestra is on a Roll...

By Gilles Bonneau

This year, the Honors Orchestra was invited to perform for several music and art festivals. On March 7th they played for the First United Methodist Preschool Family Music Festival, where they opened for Joe McDermott and the Biscuit Brothers, and on April 4th they performed for ACC's first Carnival ah! festival. Sporting their new Honors Orchestra Shirts designed by Ellen Buckmaster, they played a 45 minute set for each event and drew rave reviews from organizers and visitors alike.

By the time you read this, they will also have performed for the Self-Portrait Show and, for the 8th grade, at the Aveda Show. The Honors Orchestra's next performances will be on May 14th for the GSA concert and on May 31st for the Celebration of Music Sunday at Christ Lutheran Church in Georgetown, where parent Matthew Daude Laurents is music director.
