Roswell High School Chamber Orchestra to Perform at 69th Annual Midwest Clinic

Sara Payne, director of the Roswell High School Chamber Orchestra, is delighted to announce their upcoming performance at the prestigious Midwest Clinic December 16-19, 2015. The Midwest Clinic is the world’s largest instrumental music conference. Created to raise the standards of music education, the conference is attended by over 17,000 music professionals each year. The invitation to perform is an honor extended to only a select group of bands and orchestras. Several thousand audition tapes are submitted internationally for this event. Only 40 outstanding musical organizations are chosen to perform.

RHS Orchestra has previously been recognized by several music education agencies, prompting performances at the 2014 London Festival of Music, the Georgia Statewide Honors Orchestra, Spivey Hall Chamber Music Workshop, Festival Disney at Walt Disney World, the NAfME All National Honors Ensemble, and the 2015 Honors Performance Series at Carnegie Hall.

RHS Orchestra Director Sara Payne has been recognized by MIT as being “influential in student development”, and was the recipient of the 2014 Claes Nobel Educator of Distinction Award.
