“Being in the Old Rochester Regional music program has taught me so much, like how to set an example, be a leader, and what it’s like to have people look up to me. Chorus has taught me what it’s like to work with a group that cares so much about your individual health and well-being. Performing has brought me out of my shell and helped me step into my own light, not hide in the shadow of other people’s light. Chorus is a family to me. Every time I stepped into that chorus room, my worries would wash away. It would only be one thought to me and that would be rehearsing. Some of my best memories of high school will be from the music department.”
