Clear Lake High School Orchestra on Carnagie Hall in 2006

 

Clear Lake High School Orchestra's invitation to perform in Carnegie Hall on April 14, 2006 was extended to only four high school orchestras in the United States during that time.

 

Aside from their performance, our students had the privilege of visiting many sites and attractions such as the Empire State Building, Times Square, Central Park, Ellis Island, Ground Zero, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Planet Hollywood, South Street Seaport, Chinatown, and the Sony Wonder Technology Lab. They also had the chance to witness spectacular broadway performances by the Blue Man Group at Astor Place Theater, Wicked at the Gershwin Theater, and The Phantom of the Opera at the Majestic Theater.
