KS/Kansas City Ambassadors of Music

The KS/KC Ambassadors of Music has been around for 37 years. They are one of America's most desired concert organizations. They perform in famous cathedrals and beautiful settings throughout Western Europe. Participants are chosen to attend making this an exclusive trip for dedicated students. We have our choice to be in either choir, band or orchestra, or we may choose to be in choir and band. At this time I have chosen to dedicate my time to choir only.

Places we tour in 16 days:

England- Westminster Cathedral, Big Ben, he Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle and much more. (We get to see a famous Theatrical Play)

France- Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, the Louvre and much more.

Switzerland-Lake Geneva Castle of Chillon, Zermatt to see the Materhorn and much more.

Liechtenstein-This is a very small country and will see the Rhine River the capital village of Vaduz and the Royal Castle.

Austria-Village of Seefeld, Innsbruck, Triumphal arch and much more.

Italy-Venice and the Grand Canal, St. Mark's Square, the Doges Palas and much more.

Germany-Rothenburg village wall and the concentration camps outside of Munich.

These are just highlights. We get to do so much more.
This will be a wonderful opportunity for me to expand as a musician and to see the world and how other cultures view music.

Parents and Grandparents can also attend with me. My parents will not be able to go but I am happy to say that my Grandma Miller will be attending. We will be planning fundraisers for the near future.

Details

My Mom just started this blog for me so I can make some extra money to fund my trip to Europe. My Blog will have informative postings about the trip and about the program in which I was nominated. Please send her an email if you have any questions. success@ucom.net You may have already received and email from her, my Dad or myself. There is no financial obligation on your part. She will give you details on how you can help with just a minute of your time. The cost of this trip is to much for me to make in 14 months working part time. I already have money in savings but not near enough at this point. Our trip will take place June of '09.

I will also post my progress and my journey up until our trip. I'm so excited to have been chosen. A big Thank You goes out to my Music Teacher!

Thank You to all of you who are supporting me in all different ways. We will be having local fundraisers this summer so stop by and see us!
