Heroes Concert Success

Congratulations to Doc and all three orchestras for great performances Tuesday evening at our Heroes concert! After rehearsals, students who opted into the preconcert dinner enjoyed “heroes” and time mingling with friends. Thanks to Hospitality Co-Chairs Amy Prewett & Nina Chee, and to all the volunteers who donated their time and food. For those who missed it this week, be sure to get your Krispy Kreme donuts on the next concert day starting at 3:25 pm in Langley Hall as our Donuts Fundraising Chair Laura Cian sold out of donuts quickly. Our Coffee Fundraising Chair Calli Harris also sold out of coffee and will be taking coffee pre-orders soon for delivery at our next concert.

The Heroes concert video will be made available to our orchestra students and families early next week via a link in Schoology and our e-newsletter. In the meantime, enjoy photos taken by our amazing Concert Photographer Rania Razek and assistant photographers Mike & Jen Dzwonczyk. Visit our Shutterfly page at langleyorchestra.shutterfly.com to see all 5 folders of photos, including photos from the concert, afternoon rehearsals, and casual photos in Langley Hall.

Spreading the word: Heroes concert

With only a few days left before the Heroes Concert, this week’s Connection newspapers included an article by Erika Li announcing the upcoming concert featuring music by Brian Balmages and Richard Meyer. Special thanks to Susan McQuade, alumni parent, for continuing to serve as the orchestra’s publicity liaison.

The full newspapers can be accessed at http://connectionarchives.com/PDF/2021/101321/McLean.pdf (McLean) and http://connectionarchives.com/PDF/2021/101321/Great%20Falls.pdf (Great Falls). Erika’s article can be found on page 10 of both editions.
