Middle school band students share the spotlight at the Fall REcital
Middle school band students shared the spotlight during an interactive Fall REcital, a lively evening performance that took place at various venues across the Everglades Campus. The non-traditional concert began in Swenson Hall, where parents sat alongside their sixth-grade band students as Interim Director of Arts Cathi Leibinger both directed the novice students in simple "performances" while also sharing her approach in the classroom.
Performances continued with the more experienced seventh- and eighth-grade students: after a trio of solos by Alex Lombard ’29 (flute), Yifan Shen ’30 (Alto sax) and Eitan Carrasco ’29 (tuba) on the auditorium stage, students participated in solo and ensemble performances in four classrooms and the Braman Media Center.
