Cobleskill-Richmondville Central School

The Cobleskill-Richmondville Music Department is proud to announce that several of our high school musicians were selected to perform in the NYSSMA Area All-State Zone 8 Music Festival, held this past weekend in Cooperstown.

With fifteen zones across New York State, selection to an Area All-State ensemble is a significant honor. These students earned their place through outstanding scores at the NYSSMA Solo Festival held last May in Norwich.

Representing C-RCS in this year’s festival were:

Mixed Chorus
• Thomas McAllister
• Rebecca Redmond

Treble Chorus
• Abigail Smith
• Alyvia Zipperle

Concert Band
• John Hopkins
• Haley Slater
• Claire Brownell
• Aidan Medica
• Oliver Schel 

The festival brought together some of the finest young musicians from across the region, offering students a valuable opportunity to rehearse and perform with top guest conductors while refining their musical skills in a collaborative and inspiring environment.

Congratulations to all of our Area All-State performers on this tremendous achievement!
