Bishop O'Connell musicians were well represented at the 2014 District 12 Honors Orchestra auditions at Herndon High School this week.
"We had an amazing group of musicians at this event," said Orchestra director, Ronald Isaacson. "These auditions are somewhat like trying out for a regional all-star team, and our students rose to the occasion."
Senior Fernando Agront and freshman Kenneth Rudolph were both selected for the prestigious ensemble. Agront scored 8th on the cello and Rudolph scored 24th on the violin. Rudolph was honored to make the first violin section of the orchestra.
The District 12 Honors Orchestra will rehearse and perform together at Wakefield High School in Arlington on Saturday, Jan. 10.
