Charlotte Soslow ’28, Sarah Page-McCaw ’24 and Assistant Band Director Miranda Vargo spent the last weekend of January in Murfreesboro and at Lipscomb University to participate in this year’s Mid-State Band Clinic Weekend. Charlotte and Sarah competed against hundreds of clarinet players across the Middle Tennessee region to secure spots in the 7/8 Silver Band and 11/12 Gold Band, respectively.
Both students got to work with top clinicians and perform alongside some of the best young musicians in Tennessee.
