Disney Extra Credit - Fall 2012 - (Page 17)
Ms. Wright says that Festival Disney offers a high level of professionalism set in a family friendly environment. But she believes the greatest benefit of the festival is the exposure her group gets to other top notch performers. “Competitive festivals teach students that there’s a real world out there,” she says. “It totally changed the professional level that the kids saw and what they aspired to … and this immediately started improving the performance of our own students.” And while the students of Ellsworth High School have certainly improved as performers as a result of the festival, Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser believes that there is much more to be gained from competition, saying “Growth is in the process as well as the product. Each step of the preparation … has within it a priceless bit of learning. In essence, there is the chance to create a template of success that is easily transferred to all academic learning and, in fact, all facets of achievement. Success begets success.”
Throughout select weekends in the spring, Festival Disney gives students the chance to perform at the Walt Disney World® Resort. Performance venues have been carefully selected to provide an excellent experience for all participants. Festival Disney is open to concert bands, jazz ensembles, marching (parade) bands, orchestras, vocal ensembles, show choirs and auxiliary units. Ensembles are encouraged to meet fellow students and attend performances by other ensembles, as well as explore the magic of Disney Theme Parks!
