Oct. 23, 2024: A group of talented musicians from Bronxville High School have been invited to perform in the prestigious New York State Music Association’s 2024 Area All-State and All-State concerts on Nov. 2-3 and Dec. 4-7.

All-State Orchestra

Performing at the Area All-State orchestra are Samuel Bright (bass), Charlotte Davis (cello), Abigail Fong (violin), Camille Gautier (viola), Aidan Gegenwarth (violin), Ava Toolan (violin), Tiantong Wang (oboe) and Isabel Yeon (violin).

All-State Chorus

Performing with the Area All-State chorus are Peyton Gallo, Charlotte Haller, Isabel Haller and Katherine Fezza.

All-State Band

Performing with the Area All-State band are Henry Scholes (baritone) and Sean Spillane (tuba).

“The students represent hard work and dedication,” said Uma Karkala, band director and music department chairperson. “It is an honor to see these students represent Bronxville and share their talents with other musicians and educators. We are extremely proud of these musicians and their commitment to music.”

The students were selected from almost a thousand students based on auditions at last spring’s New York State School Music Association festival. The highest-scoring students at the festival are invited to participate in the Area All-State music ensembles.

The Area All-State band and orchestra concerts will take place on Saturday, Nov. 2, and the chorus concert on Sunday, Nov. 3, at New Rochelle High School.

All-State Winter Conference

In addition, Tiantong Wang and Samuel Bright are among an elite group of students to perform at NYSSMA’s All-State Winter Conference in December. Out of thousands of students from across the state who auditioned, they were selected to perform at the annual concert based on their perfect scores.

The All-State Winter Conference will be held at Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre in Rochester, New York, on Dec. 4-7.
