Great start to the weekend!

Because of our two-hour early dismissal, I only got to see two bands today, but WOW! They were fantastic! 8th graders, you did an excellent job on "Allegretto" and "The Chipmunk Song". (Could those two songs BE more different?!) I was really pleased with how well you responded to my suggestions for improving sound. Trombones, thanks for getting the whole "round sound" thing! Drummers, you rocked! Saxes and trumpet, keep up the good work! The 6th grade beginning band was also rockin' on their sight reading of "The Night Before Christmas". I can't believe that some of you just started playing LAST MONTH! Keep up the good work, EVERYONE! Get some practice in this weekend. Hope to see some of you tomorrow at NHS for the "Beat the Teach" 5K.
