Bill > K00068

This Resolution congratulates Kellie Tang, a senior from William Floyd High School, for being selected to perform in the piano showcase at the 2022 New York State School Music Association's (NYSSMA) All-State Festival. NYSSMA is an organization that supports music education in New York State, and its All-State Festival is a prestigious event where top student musicians are chosen to perform. Kellie Tang, who is legally blind, was one of only eight student-musicians selected for this honor and the first from her school district to achieve it, earning her spot by performing Beethoven's Sonata No. 17. The Resolution also highlights her exceptional academic record, her involvement in school music programs like the Orchestra and Chorus, and her extensive piano training and performance experience, including at renowned venues like Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall, recognizing her dedication and talent.
