Sparta Music Program Visits Orlando

Written by: Sarah Riley 

From Mar. 14 to Mar. 17, Sparta High School’s band, orchestra, and marching band students had an incredible opportunity to travel down to Orlando, Florida for a 4-day fun-filled trip. The students came out with memorable experiences to keep with them forever-- a mix of roller coasters and musical performances, and memorable experiences to keep with them. Their trip started with an early morning flight to Orlando followed by a stop at Universal Studios. The rest of the trip consisted of three days at Disney’s Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Hollywood Studios, concluding with a flight back to the North.                 
  

“It was an experience I will never forget. I learned so much in the little time we had. It was so much fun!” says orchestra student Emma Muth. The experience allowed the students to really see what it would be like to be a professional musician working. In the workshop, Disney allowed the students to see the working life of live performers and experience what it would be like to be in the studio recording music for every beloved Disney movie.

Not only was the learning experience an amazing opportunity, but spending a few days in the warmth away from the cold in New Jersey was a welcome change for the Spartans. Band and Marching Band member, Jessica Steel, very much enjoyed the trip: “I thought it was a lot of fun to hang out with my friends in a really cool place, and I got to march in the parade which was really awesome.”
