Eight Benbrook Middle-High School band students are hitting the right notes after earning spots in the Fort Worth ISD All-District Band, including two who finished first in their instruments.
Of the 13 BMHS students who auditioned last week, eight earned a place in the districtwide ensemble and will perform alongside some of Fort Worth ISD’s top young musicians in February.
Matthew Dubon earned first place on trumpet, while Gabby Lysyanskiy took first on French horn. Other students earning All-District honors include Kaleb Key (2nd, percussion), Kadence Kirk (3rd, percussion), Cannon Brooks (3rd, tuba), Benjamin Hudspeth (4th, euphonium), Morgan Williams (7th, French horn), and Kennadie Kirk (9th, clarinet).
Five additional Bobcat musicians also competed, earning percussion placements: Hudson McBride (11th), Enzo Mao (15th), Carissa Horn (21st), Kolby Blackmon (23rd), and Owen Espinoza (24th).
With eight students advancing to the All-District Band, the Bobcats have plenty to celebrate as they prepare for February’s performance.
