Brandeis Students Sing the National Anthem at Giants Baseball Game

It was all smiles as the Brandeis fifth grade and lower and middle school choruses joined together with Brandeis Marin to sing the national anthem before the April 11 Giants game at AT&T Park. This National Anthem tradition, which has happened since 2010 with our fourth and fifth grade students, changed this year and will continue in future years: as a culmination of their lower school experience and to more closely align with our lower school music program and curriculum, fifth grade students—along with our lower school and middle school chorus—will participate in this unique opportunity. Our students’ skills were on display, essential skills about preparation and discipline to confidently perform in front of the enormous crowd there to cheer on the Giants. “For the fifth grade, this is the cornerstone of their lower school experience,” says music teacher Kimberly Lostetter. “The whole group did a wonderful job; it was awesome hearing their two-part harmony echoing throughout the stands at AT&T Park.”
 
A big thank-you to Ms. Lostetter for her work in preparing our students for this big moment. MORE PHOTOS
