Music Ensembles Visit Disney World

Over February Break, the RHAM music ensembles took a trip to Walt Disney World in Florida. The trip, lasting a total of 5 days, was a great success. Upon arrival, both choral and instrumental groups headed straight to EPCOT to enjoy the park for the afternoon until they split up for workshops that night. The workshops, sponsored by the "Walt Disney Magic Music Day" program, lasted two hours and were a great success.

The following morning pertained strictly to performance. Both ensembles dealt with extremely windy conditions at the band shell. A few stands were blown over and some music scattered subsequently, but all in all, the ensembles looked past the adverse conditions and both had stellar performances.

After the performance, students were shipped to Animal Kingdom for the rest of the day and spent the following two days touring Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios.
