The 7th Grade Band

On May 2, 2006, parents, teachers, and students enjoyed great performances presented by the band, the string orchestra, and the choir of Mark Twain Intermediate School for the Gifted & Talented. My daughter, who was in the 7th grade Band, performed "Aventura" (the Spanish word for adventure), a piece composed by James Swearingen. My daughter started playing piano at 4 and flute at 9. She will be attending Manhattan School of Music Summer Program with full scholarship this summer.
