As in so many holiday seasons past, the New Providence high school’s music department shared the many musical talents of their students and teachers with the SNP Rotary.In addition to the music department, present were newly appointed superintendent of schools, Lauren Zirpoli (the Rotary offers our congratulations to Lauren on her promotion to superintendent) and Brian Henry, principal of NPHS. They were joined by about twenty-five Rotarians and guests.
The concert started with three seasonal numbers by the Swingin’ Strings under the direction of Ben Rubens. This was followed by a solo song (with jazz accompaniment) by Kylie Freeman.
The Jazz choir followed with three more numbers, under the direction of Scott Ziegler. There were several outstanding solos as well as one wonderful scat rendition.
Finally, the jazz band, under the direction of Michael Niedziejko, played two numbers and brought the house down (in a manner of speaking).
The Rotarians so appreciate the NPHS students and their terrific instructors sharing their talents with us. We wish the students, their teachers and the administrators a healthy, safe and happy holiday and new year.
