Twenty Bethlehem High School music students were selected for this year’s Area All-State Festival, which is being held at Proctors Theater in Schenectady on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 21-22.
Students were selected based upon their outstanding NYSSMA solo festival scores last spring, and will join other selected high school musicians from the greater Capital Region to rehearse and perform together over the two-day festival.
The festival’s closing performance is at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 22 at Proctors. The concert is open to the public. Information and tickets are available here.
Congratulations to these amazing student-musicians!
