Musicians from the Ridgefield Symphony Orchestra visited Sandy Hook Elementary School in Sandy Hook on Thursday, January 25th and presented a lively interactive program for 3rd and 4th-grade students.
String trio Chie Yoshinaka, Sue Corey-Sahlin and Gunnar Sahlin demonstrated their instruments and performed a variety of music in a program tailored to the grade level of music education. The students were attentive and enthusiastic as the trio performed pieces by Mozart, Dvorak, Rimsky-Korsakov and others and hands shot in the air when asked if they had questions or comments. Music teacher Maryrose Kristopik led the group in singing the school song to the RSO musicians as a very special ending to the program.
