Local students attend all-state music convention
[FEB.
11, 2003]
Kirsten Gandenberger and
Michael Kasa attended the Illinois Music Education Association's
annual convention Jan. 30 through Feb. 1 in Peoria. Both are
students at Lincoln Community High School. Michael was selected for
the All-State Band and Kirsten was selected for the All-State Honors
Band.
|
Kirsten is the
daughter of Gil and Bonnie Gandenberger of Lincoln. She has been a
band member for eight years. During high school Kirsten has been her
section leader for four years and section leader of the jazz band
three years. She has been a member of the IMEA's District Band four
times and a member of the All-State Honors Band twice.

[Kirsten Gandenberger]
She is employed by
Audra's Studio of Dance, where she teaches classes in ballet, pointe,
Celtic dance and tumbling. She is also a student in numerous dance
classes and a member of the Flying Feet Cloggers.
Next year she plans
to attend Webster University as a dance major.
Michael is the son of
Paul and Julie Kasa and a junior at LCHS. He has been studying the
trombone since fourth grade and the piano since third. He has been
the trombone section leader at the high school for three years and
plays in the jazz band.
Outside of band, he
has been the accompanist for the spring musical and the fall
Spooktacular. He is a member of the National Honor Society,
Thespians, Scholastic Bowl, Spanish Club and chorus.

Students who attend
the IMEA convention have gone through a rigorous schedule of
auditions and performances. The process begins with auditions at the
district level in October, and students who are selected perform
with the District Festival Band at Western Illinois University in
November. Scores are then carried over to determine if the musicians
rank high enough to attend at the state level.
Both local students
were notified in early December that they had indeed made one of the
all-state organizations. Upon arriving in Peoria, they auditioned
for placement in either the All-State Band or in the more
prestigious All-State Honor Band.
Every year thousands of students audition
for the state honor, and only the best are selected. Lincoln can be
proud of these two fine young people. They have brought honor to
themselves, their families and the Lincoln community.
