The first orchestra concert of the school year it will be held in the Boyle Auditorium on Mon. sept.,21 at 7:00 PM there is no cost to attend.

Freshman Alexia Hendricks is a cello player in concert orchestra; she has played the cello for three years.

“My favorite piece is, Far Away Place, because it’s a different rhythm and is much more complicated which makes it more fun to play,” Hendricks said.

Concert and Symphony have been practicing these pieces since the second week of school.

“The high school orchestra is a lot faster and more student driven than my middle school orchestra,” Hendricks said.

Orchestra teacher Doreen Press has been teaching orchestra for 39 years.

“I am looking forward to beginning a wonderful orchestral season at McClintock and sharing great music with our audience and doing what we do best,” Press said.

The three orchestras will be playing about two pieces each.

“Its hard to say, but my favorite piece out of the whole concert is the one we are opening with, Far Away Place,” Press said

The order of orchestras that will be playing is Concert, Chamber, and Symphony.
