Shoutout to our soloists for all of the extra work they put in, almost completely on their own!
It takes a lot of courage to perform for adjudicators and the public as part of a Large Ensemble, but it takes even more to do so alone or in small groups and being the only person on your part. Thank you for all of your efforts!
Way to go, Pioneers!
