The Islip Public Schools Office of Fine and Performing Arts is proud to announce the selection of 47 students to perform in the Suffolk County Music Educators Association’s All-County Festival.

These All-County student-musicians were chosen to participate based upon their performances at last year’s New York State School Music Association Solo Festival and teacher recommendations. The students are selected from a pool of hundreds of applicants from districts across Suffolk County.

The students are currently preparing for the festival with their school music teachers, and will participate in a series of rehearsals that culminate in concerts during the weekend of March 9. The pieces featured on the concerts are of a high level of difficulty, equal to those performed by college and professional ensembles.
