Excellent essay! You've had some awesome experiences!

My Most Musical Experience I have been involved with music my whole so i have had many great musical moments. I got to go watch my dads marching band play in places like chicago and boston. I had the honor to go see the pittsburgh symphoney with advanced strings in elementary.I also got to see very muscial places with the music department such as broadway in new york and the kennedy center in D.C.. Not to mention with the recent marine band concert, i have now seen the the nations premeir marine, air force,and army bands. All these experiences were great, but my favorite experience of all was going to states last year in orchestra.

All-state Orchestra proved to be not only a fun experience, but a valueable one as well. A state festival was like no other festival I was ever at. The coolest thng about the whole experience is that I got to play along with the best high school orchestra players in the state and I got to see how I ranked with them in auditions. The music that we made also sounded amazing. Since we played so well the director wasn't as strict and the whole festival seemed less stressful since everyone knew the task we had at hand.

Sincestate jazz had the concert on thursday, I got to see another group perform and compare our group to theirs. (TO BE CONTINUED)
