BY: M. of A. Gunther

        HONORING  the  Liberty Middle School Jazz Ensemble
        upon the occasion of their participation in Music In
        Our Schools Month 2019

  WHEREAS, The arts, in whatever form depicted, are central  to  human
expression;  they  are truly a universal language and their contribution
to the development of friendship and  understanding  among  all  peoples
cannot be underestimated; and

  WHEREAS,  It  is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize and
commend those musical organizations that have brought entertainment  and
cultural enrichment to the citizens of the great State of New York; and

  WHEREAS,  Attendant  to  such  concern,  and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to honor
the Liberty Middle School Jazz  Ensemble  upon  the  occasion  of  their
participation in Music In Our Schools Month 2019; and

  WHEREAS,  On  Monday, March 11, 2019, the Liberty Middle School Jazz
Ensemble  will  participate  in  Music  In  Our  Schools  Month  with  a
performance  in  the  Concourse  of  the Empire State Plaza, Albany, New
York; and

  WHEREAS, The New York State School Music Association  sponsors  this
event  and  has  helped  it  evolve  from  a  New  York State Day into a
month-long national observance; and

  WHEREAS, Talent, dedication and countless  hours  of  practice  have
made  Liberty  High  School Jazz Ensemble the outstanding ensemble it is
today; and

  WHEREAS, Skillfully led by Eric Aweh, the  members  of  the  Liberty
Middle  School  Jazz  Ensemble  work  hard  at  their  music rehearsals,
classroom assignments and practice sessions, fully aware that the amount
of time and energy they are  willing  to  expend  directly  affects  the
quality of their music; and

  WHEREAS,  The  Liberty Middle School Jazz Ensemble, along with their
parents  and  teachers,  can  be  justifiably  proud  of  their  musical
achievements and their participation in Music In Our Schools Month 2019;
now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That  this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Liberty Middle School Jazz Ensemble upon  the  occasion  of  their
participation in Music In Our Schools Month 2019; and be it further

  RESOLVED,  That  a  copy  of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Eric Aweh, Director, Liberty Middle School Jazz Ensemble.
