WHEREAS, Matthew Reynolds and Justin Shen, seniors at Waco |
|
High School, have been selected as 2013 Texas All-State Choir |
|
members by the Texas Music Educators Association, and this fine |
|
showing indeed merits special recognition; and |
|
WHEREAS, The All-State designation is the highest honor that |
|
a Texas music student can receive; more than 55,000 students from |
|
across the state audition for about 1,500 places in one of 13 |
|
All-State bands, orchestras, and choirs, and those who win the |
|
coveted recognition attend the TMEA clinic in February in San |
|
Antonio, where they perform in concert; and |
|
WHEREAS, Both Matthew Reynolds and Justin Shen are members of |
|
the a cappella and show choirs at Waco High School; Mr. Reynolds, |
|
who has now been chosen twice for All-State Choir, recently starred |
|
in the WHS production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor |
|
Dreamcoat, while Mr. Shen played the Baker in the school's |
|
production of Into the Woods; and |
|
WHEREAS, Both students benefit from the instruction of Carrie |
|
Forehand and Michelle Espinosa; and |
|
WHEREAS, These young Texans are a source of pride to their |
|
families, teachers, and fellow students, and their accomplishments |
|
are truly worthy of commendation; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Matthew Reynolds and Justin Shen on |
|
their selection as members of the 2013 Texas Music Educators |
|
Association All-State Choir and extend to them sincere best wishes |
|
for continued success; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Mr. Reynolds and Mr. Shen as an expression of high |
|
regard by the Texas House of Representatives. |
