On March 6 and 7 at 7:30 p.m., the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District will present the 59th annual Stairway of the Stars concert at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. This performance spotlights the talents of the district’s music students, teachers and music curriculum. One of the highlights of this year’s performance will be the addition of an Elementary Honor Band, which developed as a result of the district’s expansion of the music program last year.
