Inglemoor High School musicians capture highest honors at Heritage International Music Festival
Inglemoor High School’s Orchestra, Wind Ensemble and Jazz Ensemble took the nation’s capital by storm during their trip to Washington D.C., April 11-16. The students had opportunities to explore the many historical highlights of our nation’s capital, had a personal meeting with Washington’s 1st Congressional District Congresswoman Susan DelBene, saw “Hello Dolly” in Ford Theater and the orchestra gave a special performance at the National Association for Music Education headquarters in Reston, Va.
“Our students were fantastic ambassadors for Inglemoor High School,” said Jazz Ensemble and Orchestra music director Jim Rice. “They were absolutely wonderful to travel with, performed admirably on all occasions and were positive representatives of their school community.”
Under the direction of Inglemoor music directors Jim Rice and Ted Christensen, all three music groups really turned heads at the Heritage International Music Festival on April 13. Each group won the Gold Award—scores over 90 from all judges, the Adjudicators Award—scores over 93 from all judges and the Outstanding Band Award—highest score overall regardless of classification.
