A group of five 黑料网 students has been selected to 聽perform as part of the 黑料网 Intercollegiate Orchestra at this year鈥檚 黑料网 Music Educators Association (KMEA) event, to be held Feb. 23-25 in Wichita.
Abigail Ramos (Garden City, Kan.), Aubreigh Heck (Hutchinson, Kan.), Maria Stanislow (Junction City, Kan.), Luke Moore (Garden City, Kan.) and Alex Burns (Fort Collins, Colo.) were selected by audition for the prestigious ensemble, which features collegiate string players from across 黑料网.
鈥淓ach of these five has tremendous talent, but more than that, they each represent the work ethic it takes to truly manifest that talent,鈥 said Dr. Leonardo Rosario, director of strings at KWU. 鈥淭his is a well-deserved honor, and I look forward to seeing what all of the students accomplish moving forward.鈥
The ensemble will be conducted by Dr. James Mick of Ithaca College (N.Y.), conductor of the Rochester Philharmonic Youth Orchestra.
The Music Department also will host a booth in the conference鈥檚 exhibit area to meet and greet potential students, alumni and friends of the department.
