Music

NRHS has a long-standing reputation for academic as well as musical excellence.

All performing groups share in the success attending music festivals up and down the east coast of the United States. These festivals include:

  • New York City, NY,

  • Boston, MA,

  • Orlando FL

  • as well as other locations (Washington, Williamsburg, Annapolis, Montreal).

The students that comprise these ensembles are some of the most dedicated in the school. Our student-musicians, may also be student-athletes, student-leaders, as well as student-scholars.

We are collectively very proud of our award from the Classic Music Festival in Boston, MA where the school was awarded for having the outstanding music department of the weekend. In addition, Nauset was recognized with the “Spirit of Boston” award for excellence, support, camaraderie and espirit d’corps.

The Music Department participated in a highly successful performance tour of Ireland in April of 2016. One hundred and three students traveled internationally to participate in master classes, as well as performances in Limerick, Cork, Dublin and Leopardstown, Ireland. The department students participated in several anniversary commemorations of the 100th anniversary of the Easter Rising.
