Earlier this winter, Robbins Lane Elementary School students, in the Syosset School District, performed an impressive variety of music at their winter concert.
As is the tradition, the musicians filled the H.B. Thompson Middle School auditorium with orchestra, band and choral selections.
Robbins Lane Elementary music teacher Jeanette Velsmid and her Orchestra led the audience in The Star-Spangled Banner, and then played the rhythmic Knick Knock, Super String Samba, based on “Blame it on the Bossa Nova,” and the heartwarming Over the Rainbow.
