When I was a sophomore in high school, I had the opportunity to travel to New York City to march in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade with my high school marching band. While we were there, I got to perform a concert in Carnegie Hall. I remember being both exhausted from our trip and extremely excited to play somewhere that few musicians ever get the chance to. Stepping into this concert hall is something that words can’t really describe, but I can easily say that I, along with the rest of my peers, were in awe. The inside of Carnegie Hall is gorgeous with vaulted ceilings, balconies, and rows upon rows of seats. I think about Carnegie often and hope to eventually go back to enjoy a concert from the audience point of view.
