North Babylon School District’s top middle school and high school student-musicians were recently invited to perform in the Long Island String Festival Honors Ensembles, sponsored by the Long Island String Festival Association (LISFA).
These students were selected along with other top musicians from across Suffolk County on a competitive basis, with New York State School Music Association scores and teacher recommendations as the main criteria.
Robert Moses Middle School sixth-grader Brendan Didier (string bass) will perform at the elementary LISFA concert at Northport High School on Jan. 20, while Robert Moses Middle School eighth-grader Caroline Pombonyo (violin) and North Babylon High School freshmen Rochelle Brown (violin 2) and Anthony Klenke (string bass) and junior Kevin White (string bass) will perform at the secondary concert on Feb. 3 at Ward Melville High School.
