Ben’s IMEA district orchestra audition last fall went well enough that he qualified to go to Peoria yesterday to be part of the All State Orchestra that will play at the IMEA annual conference on Saturday.
Actually they divide the musicians who qualified to go into two orchestras based on auditions held today. Ben just got his audition results: he’s sitting 11th chair of the first violins in the Honors Orchestra (the better of the two orchestras). We’re driving to Peoria on Saturday to attend the concert.
