Student musicians must pass an audition in order to be selected. The standards are high, and only the hardest working, most talented and dedicated students make the final cut. Muirlands has traditionally been underrepresented in these ensembles, but that changes this year as the school has nine students in the honor groups. The students are: sixth-graders Josie Ballard (viola), Nikki Collins (clarinet), Hannah Hu (cello), Max Leonard (percussion) and Sofia Rodriguez (violin); seventh-graders Abby Cho (violin), Shannon Howard (violin) and Ashley Kong (flute); and eighth-grader Max Halbert (trombone). Honor concerts will be held on Saturday, March 10 at 7 p.m. (seventh- and eighth-grade honor band and orchestra) at Point Loma Nazarene University&#8217;s Brown Chapel. On Thursday, March 22, the fifth- and sixth-grade honor band and orchestra will play at the same location at 7 p.m. <br \/><b>\u2018Fresh Talent\u2019 comes to La Jolla<\/b><br \/> The La Jolla Art Association will feature the talent of new and upcoming artists in the San Diego area in its next show, &#8220;Fresh Talent.&#8221; Running from March 12-25, the association will host a gala opening March 17 from 4 to 7:30 p.m. At 6 p.m., former Hollywood television writer, producer and Emmy-Award winner David Wiemers will lead a discussion with the artists to give insight into their works on display. &#8220;This will be a great opportunity to get inside the mind of an artist and see what the creative process is all about,&#8221; said Wiemers. &#8220;It never fails to make the art more interesting.&#8221; The La Jolla Art Gallery is open free to the public from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Sundays and is located at 8100 Paseo del Ocaso.
