W. Babylon Students Selected for LIFSA Festival

Students join best string players in Suffolk County for honor ensemble.

Four West Babylon School District string players were recently chosen to participate in the 2013 Long Island String Festival Association Honors String Ensembles.

The students, high school junior Tara Smith (violin), junior high school students Eric Froelich (bass) and Erin Wade (viola), and Forest Avenue fifth-grader Lucas Greengold (viola), were selected from among the very best student string players in Suffolk County.

Selection to a LISFA ensemble is a highly competitive process, based on superior scores at the annual New York State School Music Association solo festivals and school music instructor recommendations.
