A Steller band student, Jessie H, entered the Middle School Solo/Ensemble Festival last Friday.  She is an 8th grade flautist, and her selection for the festival was “March” by Robert Schumann.  She received the superior rating.  “This is Jessie’s first opportunity to play a solo for adjudication, ” said Mr. Toba, the band director.  “She managed the pressure and played well.  I am so proud of her accomplishment.”  Jessie would like to thank Gwen Colliander and Megan Webb for being the piano accompanist.
