In front of an adoring crowd of friends, family, faculty and administrators, hundreds of student-musicians in the district gave mesmerizing performances during the district’s annual music festival at LIU Post’s Tilles Center for the Performing Arts.
The program began with an All-District Elementary Band performance, which included students from Barnum Woods and McVey elementary schools, and then followed with another All-District Elementary Band performance, which included students from Bowling Green, Meadowbrook and Parkway elementary schools. Both performances were directed by guest conductor Peggy Rakas.
The East Meadow High School Chamber Orchestra, directed by conductor Michael Cascardi, and the All-District Middle School Band and All-District High School Band, both directed by guest conductor Vincent Oppido, also delighted the audience with spectacular performances.
The district commends the student-musicians for a riveting evening of music, which was made possible in part by the Tilles Center Arts In Education program.
