The best musicians from a Hemet Unified School District solo and ensemble festival will play for the public at 7 p.m. on March 1 at the Tahquitz High auditorium.
Tahquitz is at 4425 W. Commonwealth Ave. in Hemet. Admission is free.
The musicians will be chosen from among those playing Saturday at a festival at Ranch Viejo Middle School. That festival is not open to the public.
Instrumental and vocal musicians and small ensembles from elementary, middle and high schools will participate. The students will be performing solo and small ensemble compositions before judges Dwight Asberry, Ken Biske, Robin Nickerson, Rebecca Tomlinson and Craig Yancey.
Students will perform on wind, string, percussion and brass instruments. In addition, vocal master classes will be held for choral musicians.
For more information, contact Dwight Holmes at dholmes@hemetusd.k12.ca.us or 951-659-0750.
