Darien Students Perform in CMEA Elementary Honors Chorus


Seven students from Royle School and Tokeneke School were chosen to perform  in the CMEA Elementary All-State Honors Chorus in Hartford on Friday, April 12.  The students prepared the music with their teachers in advance of the festival and rehearsed all day at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford under the direction of guest choral director Sophia Popoulis.  The Elementary Honors Chorus is made up of outstanding young musicians from throughout the state and takes place each year in conjunctions with the Connecticut Music Educators Conference.  The experience culminated with a concert performance for parents and music educators.
