Herricks High School sophomore Meredith Daly is one of seven winners being recognized in the 2022 New York Flute Club Young Musicians Contest. In addition to being a dedicated member of the Herricks High School Music Department, Daly is a member of the Long Island Youth Orchestra and the Metropolitan Youth Orchestra of New York.

She recently won second place in the 2020 Queensboro Symphony Orchestra International Competition, and has participated in the NYSSSA School for Orchestral Studies, Kinhaven Music School, LIU Post Chamber Music Festival and Oyster Bay Music Festival.

The Young Musicians Contest is intended to foster the development of precollegiate flutists by exposing them to a healthy competitive environment and constructive comments from the area’s professional flutists. The seven winners will perform in person at the Flute Fair YMC concert on April 23. At the Flute Fair concert, the Herricks sophomore will play Franz Doppler’s “Fantaisie Pastorale Hongroise.”
