\non the way to Carnegie Hall, i ask people “how do i get to Carnegie Hall?” most new yorkers didn’t even know where it was. finally a grumpy taxi driver pointed me the way. when i seen the beautiful historic building, i thought to myself “WOW, i’m finally here!!!”
\n\"IMG_4898\"<\/a>
\ni don’t really know too much about the history about Carnegie Hall except it being the most historical place for music in the world.
\n\"IMG_4897\"<\/a>
\nmonday march 9. the day has finally arrived! the Kaimuki Middle School Symphonic Winds. they played along some of americas best high school bands.
\n\"IMG_4900\"<\/a>
\ni get in and check out the museum. Carnegie Hall was opened in 1891. yes, that is hundreds of years ago. historic building and most prestigious place for music.
\n\"IMG_4901\"<\/a>
\nsome of the most famous artists played in Carnegie. even guys like George Benson.
\n\"IMG_4902\"<\/a>
\nMr. Winston Churchill also had a lecture in there.
\n\"IMG_4903\"<\/a>
\nMartin Luther King, and Frank Sinatra too. i can’t believe i was standing in the same building where these great people once stood.
\n\"IMG_4905\"<\/a>
\nthe inside is amazing. so historic that it takes you back hundreds of years.
\n\"IMG_4906\"<\/a>
\nwhen i opened one of the doors, i took a peak inside and got chicken skin.
\n\"IMG_4908\"<\/a>
\nOMG! you could just feel the power. it was amazing.
\n\"IMG_4909\"<\/a>
\nthen the people started filling in. of course i was one of the first to get there. haha.
\n\"IMG_4925\"<\/a>
\nthen the Kaimuki Middle School band came out. they were first. i was so nervous for them. all 11-13 year old hawaiian kids living out their dreams. once they started playing, the music coming from their instruments just echoed throughout the hall. it was music to the ears. i had chicken skin for the whole 20 minute performance. it was totally awesome! one of the highlights of my life. i know most of the parents couldn’t come to watch their kids play, but just let me tell you that they all did awesome. you should all be so proud of these young kids representing hawaii in such a great way.
\n**later that night, i get a call saying that the kids got the gold medal! there were 3 judges and the kids won the gold! beating out the high schoolers! they were all excited and hopefully the hawaii news will be on this story when they all get back to hawaii on the 13th. congratulations to the Kaimuki Middle School Band!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
