The only thing better than the sights during the D99 orchestra concert were the sounds created by the student musicians in the orchestra. Special shout out to seniors Melissa Vos, violin and Nikki Mihelich, cello, for performing senior solos with surpassing musicianship. The film music during the performance captivated the audience throughout the evening. TheStar Wars score was presented with professional execution by the student performers. Capping the evening with more than 20 alums performing under the baton of retired District 99 Orchestra Director (1950s - 1970s) Mr. John Svoboda. The finale brought the crowd to their feet with an immediate and sincere standing ovation. Great job tonight to Ms. Mullen and the students from North & South in the D99 Orchestra!
