Message from the Reps

Fall is in the air and the school is in full swing. Seniors are getting their college lists and audition materials together, with juniors right behind them attending zoom college visits. We hope the sophomores and freshmen are starting to get a real feel of what it means to be a student at LaGuardia. On that note, Fiorello Friday is back! As students enter school every Friday, they have been able to enjoy the music echoing in the lobby as they make their way to class.

Minutes for all our meetings are posted on the Music Studio page of the website. We have linked them below as well.

Student Spotlight

In an effort to give LaGuardia Music Studio students in person performance opportunities, we have put together a showcase at Hill Country Barbecue on November 14th. Mark your calendars and keep an eye out for more info on attending this event!

October Master Class

The first Audition/Performance prep class with NYC Opera singer Rachel Zatcoff is taking place today. If there is sufficient interest, we will add more classes this month.

If your student has questions about this master class or wants to express interest, please reach out to Nan Hawley - hawley.nan@gmail.com

In the know - SGO

The SGO Music Reps are running a design contest for students to create artwork/logos for Studio merchandise both for the Vocal and Instrumental divisions.

This Contest is open to all students at LaGuardia. The final designs will be chosen by Vocal Majors for Vocal design and Instrumental Majors for the Instrumental design.
Please make sure to include either “LaGuardia Vocal” or “LaGuardia Instrumental” somewhere in the design without mentioning a specific class or graduating year. The designs will be used for either a t-shirt or sweatshirt which will then be a sold as part of the Music Studio Merchandise.
