Pops Board 2012


The 2012 Pops Board

The Board has several responsibilities, which include crafting the theatrical scripts that accompany each concert, organizing meetings, managing finances, scheduling rehearsal times, keeping the orchestra fed and musically organized, as well as publicizing for our performances. The Board works closely with the orchestra and our Music Director Allen Feinstein to organize successful and wildly entertaining concerts.

I play violin and I’m a junior in Pforzheimer House concentrating in Mechanical Engineering.
