Region 9 Instrumental Solo & Ensemble Festival

Submitted by kylynn.james on

We had a remarkable showing by Salem Hills Instrumental Music Students tonight at the Region 9 Instrumental Solo & Ensemble Festival.

As part of the curriculum in the Band and Orchestra classes taught at Salem Hills, students learn contest solos, duets, trios and other various combinations to perform in front of adjudicators. This year, Salem Hills had a total of 32 Festival entries, all of which received Excellent ratings or better. 9 of these entries qualified for the UHSAA State Solo & Ensemble Festival!

These State qualifiers include:

- Salem Hills Percussion Ensemble

- Salem Hills Chamber Percussion

- Avery Allred (Violin Solo)

- Carley Bradshaw (Violin Solo)

- Bridger Saunders (Tuba Solo)

- Cameron Kaletta (Trumpet Solo)

- Jackson Wheelwright (Trumpet Solo)

- Collin Hawkins (Cello Solo)

- Salem Hills String Duet (Avery and David)

 

Congratulations are certainly in order for these Instrumental Music students at Salem Hills! Thank you for your support of our students!
