Music Department
The AHS Music Department has been recognized as a Department of Excellence!!
The AHS Music Department has alot to be proud of! Students in the music program regularly attend NYSMA and many of the ensembles succesfully compete at level 5 & 6. Every year ten to fifteen students have gone to Area All-State. In previous years students have gone to Myrtle Beach and performed in a national adjudication. Students in the music program have various opportunitites to perform in school cocnerts, for the governor, and with proffessional musicians including the Walden Chamber Ensemble, the Neopolitan Music Society and various jazz musicians like Stephan Harris.
Last year the Select Choir went Gold with Distinction at NYSSMA Majors - this is an honor rarely earned.
