Student Teacher Biography

Picture
Caroline Sax
Middleton High School, 11th grade

Caroline is a junior at Middleton High School, and has played oboe for six years. She has been a member of the Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestra since 2020, and currently plays in the Youth Orchestra. In the spring of 2022, Caroline was selected for the WYSO Honors recital, performing the Marcello Oboe Concerto in C minor. She performed in the 2022 WSMA State Honors band, has attended UW-Madison Summer Music Clinic, and played for Dr. Stacey Berk (UW-Stevens Point professor) in a Medisky Oboe Studio master class. In addition to oboe, Caroline has also studied violin, and she plays tennis for Middleton HS and year round. In her free time, she is a TV buff, and likes to watch TV shows, movies, and YouTube. Caroline listens to music on a daily basis, and enjoys going on hikes when she can.
​

​Favorite oboe memory: Getting to play for other schools with WYSO and my middle school band. I always loved doing the middle school tours. It was fun getting to play in front of other kids and going to the West Towne food court with my classmates. I also loved the recent WYSO tour I had with the Philharmonia Orchestra. That gave me the chance to really get to know and talk to some of my fellow musicians.
