What is your favorite 

memory as a member of the MHS 

Music Department? 

Though it was short-lived, I really enjoyed 

being a part of the MHS Full Orchestra my 

freshman year. It was an amazing opportunity 

to bridge different ensembles and play 

repertoire that we wouldn't be able to perform 

without the combination of band and string 

instruments. My highlight would have to be 

our unforgettable rendition of "Phantom of the 

Opera". 

 

What are your future plans? 

I'm not sure where I'm going to college yet, but I plan on studying Neuroscience and possibly Linguistics.  

 

What has music meant to you? 

Music has always been an essential part of my life. It was always playing in my house growing up, and to this day I can't go very long without listening to or playing music. Being a part of the MHS Music Department has made me a better musician and I will be forever grateful for everything I have learned here.

What has music meant to you? 

Music means so much to me, I listen to it whenever I can. Band also meant a lot to me, I say that in the past tense because it's not the same that it used to be but we're making due with what we can. Band is a place of community where everyone works together to make one piece of music sound great. I loved the progression we make from first getting a piece of music to playing it in concert. I will always remember band as a place to relax and focus on music, amidst the stress of school.
