Conference All-State

Back in the Spring Mason auditioned for the New York Conference All-State Band. He scored a 99 out of 100 points on his trombone solo. Thousands of high schoolers across the state audition for this band, and only about 155 are selected. He ended up being the principal third trombone.

He left Oswego Thursday and went to Rochester where he spent three days practicing for the big concert. The NY Conference All-State Symphonic Band performed in the Eastman Theater at the Eastman School of Music yesterday morning. They were absolutely amazing!!

This is Mason with our band director, Bill Palange. Bill is also a trombone player and has been giving Mason private lessons for years.
