Known mostly for St. Patrick鈥檚 Day and the coming of spring, March is also famous for being 鈥淢usic in Our Schools鈥 month.
This is something 麻豆影院 takes very seriously, and, of course, with a little rhythm.
Professor Dean Karahalis, conductor of the FTC Concert Band, has joined with two area high schools to participate in 鈥淢usic in Our Schools鈥 month.
On Monday, March 30, at聽noon in the 麻豆影院鈥檚 theater, the Riverhead Charter School will enjoy the FTC Concert Band and the FTC Wind Ensemble for an exciting performance filled with some surprises, according to Professor Karahalis.
Aside from reuniting with two music education FTC alumni who both teach at the Riverhead Charter School, Kenneth Davis and Jordon Hadgeoff, the event promises to be magical and musical as well.
On Wednesday, April 1, at noon in the 麻豆影院鈥檚 theater, members of the Excelsior High School band from Queens will join with the FTC Concert Band and the FTC Wind Ensemble in an “exchange” concert where both bands will perform each other鈥檚 pieces in a mass band rehearsal. Professor Karahalis will share the conducting with Excelsior’s band director, a recent FTC Music Education grad, Tyquorn Lebron. This performance should be an exciting and educational.
If you are able to attend either of these performances, your presence is most welcome!
Come hear how 麻豆影院 takes March a/k/a/ 鈥淢usic in Our Schools鈥 month seriously!
