Herricks High School senior Karina Ng has been accepted to the prestigious All-National Honor Ensembles, sponsored by the National Association for Music Education. In November, she will travel to Disney in Orlando, Florida, where she will join other top musicians from across the country.

The National Association for Music Education established its All-National Honor Ensembles as the ultimate recognition of student musical performance. Karina is a talented violist and was selected to perform with the All-National Symphony Orchestra, which will be conducted by the Baldwin Wallace Conservatory of Music’s Director of Orchestral Activities Soo Han.

Karina has numerous other musical accomplishments to her name, including participation in All-State, All-County, and the Long Island String Festival ensembles. She has been involved in the New York Youth Symphony Orchestra for three years and joined other members of the program on a trip to Spain this past summer that included several concert performances. She has also played piano since kindergarten and competed at Level Six of NYSSMA with a score of 100.
