El Sierra’s fifth and sixth grade orchestra students enjoyed the unique opportunity to perform with the Senior Suburban Orchestra at school on Wednesday, May 10.

The Senior Suburban Orchestra comprises 60 senior citizen musicians from across the region whose combined music experience exceeds 1,400 years. The El Sierra students joined the orchestra for a fantastic performance of “Fire Dragon Mountain.”

After a rehearsal with the Senior Suburban Orchestra, the combined group performed in front of the entire school. Wow! They sounded wonderful!
