Canfield student makes all-state ensemble


CANFIELD

Canfield junior high school band member Jake Fay, son of Michael and Holly Fay of Canfield, represented Canfield High School at the Ohio Music Education Association’s annual Professional Development Conference from Jan. 31 through Feb. 2 at Huntington Convention Center, Cleveland.

More than 1,000 high-school students from across Ohio submitted applications and recorded auditions in late May 2018 in hopes of being selected to perform with the prestigious OMEA All-State Ensembles for band, choir, jazz band and orchestra.

This is the second year Jake, who plays tuba, was selected to perform with an OMEA All-State ensemble.

He has been a member of the Canfield High School Symphonic Band since his freshmen year.
