Kingman Middle School will send four of its talented musicians to the Arizona Music Educators Association’s All-State Honor Band Festival this weekend.
Nearly 300 of Arizona’s highly achieving middle school instrumentalists, grades 6-7-8, will gather at Shadow Mountain High School in Phoenix, Arizona on March 16, 2019 to rehearse and perform grade level concerts in the school’s 1,000-seat auditorium. Performers for the Sixth Grade All-State Band were selected by nomination. Arizona’s seventh and eighth grade musicians auditioned in October 2018 to become part of the prestigious ensembles. KMS’s own Rylee Warren ranked third chair out of the 68 auditioning seventh grade flute players from across the state.
