MHS students participate in the SMMUSD Stairway of the Stars orchestra performance.

Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District’s high school orchestras, including students from Malibu High School, participated in the 66th Annual Stairway of the Stars concert on Feb. 18. Students performed under the direction of guest conductor Richard Meyer at Barnum Hall on the Santa Monica High School campus.

The concert ended with a performance of Tchaikovsky’s “1812 Overture,” which is best known for its climactic volley of cannon fire, chimes and fanfare.

The three-part Stairway series included a performance by the school district’s choirs on Feb. 10 and bands on Feb. 12.
