The combined string ensembles of 2010 led by Mrs. Olinger at the finale concert on June 7.
On June 7, Tesoro’s orchestras performed their last concert of the year together for their parents, their siblings, and even alumni.
String ensemble, composed of mostly younger students, performed the Hornpipe from “Water Music”, by Handel, “Farandole” from the L’Arlesienne Suite No. 2, the well known “Eleanor Rigby” by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, and “American Reel” by Mosier, which featured violin soloists freshman Yurie Hanaoka and sophomore George Schnaars.
“I felt the string ensemble’s performance was strong considering that we hadn’t rehearsed together in a couple of days due to the schedule changes caused by the furlough days,” sophomore violinist Ali Barnes expressed. “My favorite part of the concert was at the end when all of the musicians went on stage and played the finale together for the seniors.”
After a brief intermission, the chamber orchestra began their performance with an opening duet on Mozart’s K. 464 by sophomore violinist Kimmi Levin and senior violist Nicole Marcelino.
“It’s gotten easier after the years,” Levin acknowledges, “but it doesn’t mean going into the spotlight doesn’t still make me want to be sick.”
