Various students from 11 different schools making up our Shoreline Conference were selected by their band and chorus directors and attended a two-day festival held over two weeks. Musicians form a large ensemble (band or chorus) and work with a guest conductor to piece together a memorable concert. The festival culminated with an evening concert on Thursday, October 13 at the Coginchaug High School auditorium. This was the first festival held since the pandemic started in March 2020 for many of our students the first time performing in anything like this.
