On Friday, May 19th, Ms. Ulrich took the BMS 7th and 8th grade band on a trip to the Big Apple.

BMS musicians got to witness a rehearsal of Mahler’s 9th symphony by the New York Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel.  The director told the audience of donors and students that Dudamel has been compared to Mick Jagger! Watch the film Viva Maestro to learn more about him.

After the rehearsal, students visited the Central Park Zoo.
