Harborfields High School Music Students Make Disney Magic

ORLANDO, FL — More than 150 Harborfields High School music students traveled to Disney World to spend four days performing and taking part in educational workshops in early November, according to the school district.

The vocal ensemble, directed by Clare Jackson, and the chamber orchestra, under the baton of Greg Antonelli, gave separate performances for crowds at Disney Springs, according to the district. The marching band and kickline, under the leadership of Allison Scilla and Jackie Best, respectively, paraded through the Magic Kingdom.

All four ensembles worked with Disney professionals in workshop settings that covered
choreography and dance for kickline, as well as rehearsing, sight reading and film scoring for
the vocal ensemble and a combined marching band/chamber ensemble.

“Student travel and life experiences beyond the classroom are an essential part of what we try to teach,” said Scilla, who coordinated the entire trip. “We’re so proud of how our students represented Harborfields and what they learned and accomplished during our whirlwind days in Disney."
