Students Earn Accolades For A Capella At Disney World

SOUTHAMPTON, NY — Some of Southampton High School's talented young vocalists won accolades at Disney World recently.

Southampton High School’s select vocal ensembles performed at a national choir competition in Disney World on April 4 to 8, the district said.

As part of the competition, the high school’s all-female ensemble, VOSH, and all-male ensemble, MOSH, were graded on their overall sound, complexity of the music and appearance. Both groups earned “Excellent” awards for their a cappella performances, the district said.

“The students sang exceptionally well, considering our flight was delayed,” said chorus teacher Jim Tartaglia. “We didn’t get to our hotel rooms till 3 a.m. and we had to be ready to sing at 9:30 a.m.”
