Emmaus High School Music Students Participate in All-Eastern Music Festival

Emmaus High School senior Maxwell Watkins and junior Kathryn Domyan participated in the 2011 Music Educators National Conference All-Eastern Festival in Baltimore March 31 – April 3.  Leading up to their performances, the students rehearsed with some of the best musicians from 12 states across the eastern part of the country, from Maine to Maryland. 

Cellist Max Watkins was chosen to perform with the All-Eastern Honor Orchestra.  Soprano Katy Domyan was chosen to sing with the All-Eastern Honors Chorus.  To be eligible for this festival, students must audition and be selected for ensembles at the District, Regional, and State levels.  The biennial All-Eastern festival is the highest level of achievement that a high school student musician can reach. 

The 2011 MENC All-Eastern Honors Ensembles performed for an audience of thousands on Sunday, April 3, 2011 in Baltimore.
