Music students from the middle school’s sixth grade orchestra, seventh and eighth grade orchestra and chamber ensemble performed at the New York State School Music Association’s Major Organization Festival held recently at Sachem East High School. Conducted by music teachers Dr. Vanessa Salzman and Mr. Christian Neubert, each ensemble performed several pieces for a panel of adjudicators, who evaluated them on their quality of performance and level of musicianship. The district congratulates our middle school student-musicians on their outstanding musical performances!
