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

  WHEREAS,  On Wednesday, March 20, 2019, the Monticello 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  Monticello Middle School Jazz Ensemble the outstanding ensemble it
is today; and

  WHEREAS, Skillfully  led  by  Michael  Mingo,  the  members  of  the
Monticello  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 Monticello 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; now,
therefore, be it

  RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its  deliberations  to
honor  Monticello 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  Michael  Mingo, Director, Monticello Middle School Jazz
Ensemble.
