This past weekend, senior Min Roldan participated in the All-VA Band and Orchestra event in Richmond, VA. Min auditioned for this ensemble back in February and was awarded a spot as 1st chair trumpet in the Concert Band. A few weeks before the event, they received word that they were being promoted to the Symphonic Band, which is the top band in the state. This is a prestigious accomplishment and is a reflection of Ms. Roldan's commitment to musical excellence and hard work. Congratulations!!
