Huntington High School Vocalists Named All-State

A group of talented Huntington High School vocalists has been chosen to participate in the New York State School Music Association All-State conference in December in Rochester.

Lily Wasoski, Liva Camarata and Rachel Huth has all been chosen for the All-State chorus. Emily Kustera and Samuel Soric have been tapped as alternate All-State chorus members. The group from Huntington will be performing with the “best of the best.”

A series of concerts will be held at the Eastman Theatre in Rochester from December 5-8. The Huntington UFSD music teachers who have worked with the five All-State honorees since elementary school are all proud of the teenagers.

Huntington High School has a tradition of sending a large contingent to the All-State conference each year. The All-State Festival includes only the very top musicians from across the entire state. Participation requires a perfect or near perfect score on a Level VI NYSSMA solo. Judges compile a proficiency list of competing students at each NYSSMA festival around the state each spring. The top students on the proficiency list are then invited to attend the state conference. The competition is so intense that some students with perfect scores are not selected.
