On April 23rd, Trumbull High hosted an amazing school event – the induction of its second class of members of the Tri-M Music Honors Society. The honors society is comprised of choir, band, and orchestra students grades 10 and up who have demonstrated proficiency in a variety of \u00a0musical arts.<\/p>\n

Every bimonthly meeting, students perform a piece of their choice individually or in groups, sharing their talents and repertoires with the rest of Tri-M.<\/p>\n

Junior Kelly Cranston, who is currently serving as secretary of Tri-M, says, \u201cI love being a part of the music honors society because I enjoy hearing people show their musical talents. It\u2019s great to be around people who feel the same way about music as I do.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group spent considerable time preparing for the important induction ceremony. A group of orchestra and band students prepared an arrangement of \u201cI Dreamed a Dream\u201d \u00a0from the musical Les Miserables<\/i> to perform at the ceremony. Additionally, \u00a0a group of women\u2019s ensemble students sang \u201cPsallite,\u201d a song from their winter concert repertoire with a macaronic text, meaning it is sung in multiple languages.<\/p>\n

The student officers and the group advisors spent time making sure everything about the night would run smoothly. All the time and effort exerted led to the creation of a great event.<\/p>\n

Chiaki Santiago, the president of Trumbull High\u2019s Tri-M chapter, said, \u201cI think the most difficult part was executing everything and making sure that all the parents and speakers were notified. But the actual induction was simple because Tri-M provides an amazing script to follow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ben Vu, an orchestra student and a second year member of Tri-M, said, \u201cLast year the amount of people in Tri-M was really small and it was really nice to see the program growing. While I sat in the already inducted section of the stage, it was cool to see that the new inductees outnumbered us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The music honors society is a great addition to the THS community, and is continuing to grow and root itself in the school with every year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received our chapter designation two years ago, and we feel that the society has brought a greater understanding and cohesiveness to our department, and that many others from our school and community have benefited from our service activities,\u201d says Tri-M advisor Ms. Tornillo.<\/p>\n

The induction went on without a hitch, and the forty new inductees of Tri-M Music Honors Society Chapter #6851 enjoyed a great reception afterwards.<\/p>\n
