Musicians dream of going to the Grammy's, and at 17 years old, Alexandria DeWalt gets to live out that vision this February. The senior at the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts was selected to the 2017 Grammy Jazz Choir. She's one of just 32 students to earn the honor, and the first vocalist from HSPVA to be selected. She'll get to participate in a Grammy Camp leading up to the music awards show. DeWalt grew up in a musical family, and points out her older brother is currently playing trumpet for Solange Knowles. It all helps give her an appreciation for a variety of genres.
