Babylon Grade School Hosts Winter Concerts

Musicians from Babylon Grade School had the opportunity to perform in front of their friends, family, teachers and classmates this month in a dazzling series of winter concerts held both in the grade school gymnasium and Babylon High School’s Rowe Hall auditorium. 

Performances were made by Colleen Angerami’s third- and fourth-grade chorus, Paul Grisafi’s orchestra and Don Meier’s cadet band.

The festivities kicked off on the morning of Jan. 17, as the young musicians performed for their classmates and grade school faculty in the school gymnasium. Family members enjoyed the students’ second performance of the day later that evening at Rowe Hall.

Among the many highlights was the cadet band making their very first performance in front of a live audience, playing each of their three songs twice through to get the full enjoyment from the experience.

The Grade School Winter Concert Part II is slated for Jan. 24 at 7 p.m. at Babylon High School’s Rowe Hall.
