Talk about hardworking, after the students perform at Applebee’s, they head back to the Performing Arts Center (PAC) to rehearse for the Spring Musical, and then in the evening they will perform highlight’s from this year’s musical, Oklahoma!, at the annual Brewster Education Foundation (BEF) Gala.  This year the BEF is honoring the Performing Arts in our schools.  An ensemble of students from the orchestra known as the “Foggintown Fiddlers” will also be performing that evening.

On March 17, 2010 the BHS Marching Band will once again perform in NYC’s St. Patrick’s Day parade.  This will be the third time the band has performed at the largest St. Patrick’s Day parade in the world.  They have won awards for past performances and we look forward to another outstanding event.   To purchase tickets for this event go to:  http://www.bef.org/docs/BEF2010AnnualGala.pdf

The Brewster Central School District is very proud of their  performing arts program. Approximately 2900 students in grades K-9 are receiving weekly classroom music instruction during the school day. They are being educated in various aspects of music education such as notation, pitch, rhythm, instrument recognition, historical and ethnic effects on music and evaluation of the many styles of music which exist throughout history. In addition, more than 1,000 students are experiencing the joys of creating music by participating in one or more of our many performing ensembles. These include choirs beginning in grade three, string and band instruments beginning and grade four and outstanding theater presentations at the middle school and high school.

Show your support and purchase tickets to one or all of their performances.
