Our clarinet professor is pulling double duty this weekend! Dr. Scott also performs in the United States Army Band "Pershing's Own," and will be performing with them this Sunday at 3pm in a concert in Gettysburg at the Majestic Theater. Students will also have the benefit of playing for numerous members of "Pershing's Own" in masterclasses that morning.

Look how happy we are after finishing an evening of sectionals and performing for the Atholton High School Band program! What a fantastic group of musicians, excellent questions and we were happy to chat about the programs and opportunities at Sunderman Conservatory of Music and Gettysburg College.
Reach out if you are a high school educator interested in having us come work with your program!
