Niskayuna HS's Studentiade

This coming Sunday at MiSci, the Museum of Innovation and Science in Schenectady, Niskayuna High School hosts the first Studentiade, a cross-departmental ‘Schubertiade for modern times’. The Musicians of Ma’Alwyck, local poets and alumni join the choir, band and orchestra for a series of concerts enriched by Schubert-inspired presentations from around the school - art displays, poetry readings, history talks, the NY STEAM bus, Viennese delicacies from local bakeries and more. Seniors Mark Ferri and Sophie Spindler came in with Choral Director Christina Pizzino-Catalano to tell us about it 5pm, Sunday June 9 at MiSci in Schenectady

Charlotte Wilson has been immersed in classical music all her life. Her parents were great music lovers, always had something playing on the radio or turntable, and she began on recorder and then piano before she can remember. Charlotte originally wanted to be a concert pianist but just didn’t quite have it, no matter how hard she practiced! She tried many other instruments slightly too late (violin, cello, clarinet) before discovering radio. Charlotte can be heard from 4-8pm weekdays and 10-2 on Saturdays.
