The power of music.

Saw this video and thought I would share it with you. It goes to show that everyone has a talent.

What are you thankful for?

I am thankful for students always do their best in all they do.
I am thankful for my family - including my furry children.
I am thankful for the men and women who fight and have fought for our freedom.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Don't forget to practice :-)

After Concert Thoughts

Everyone - band, orchestra and chorus - sounded great last night!

There were some really nice things going on musically and some things that we will need to work on as we prepare for our next performances.

Behavior was a disappointment. (We will be discussing proper audience behavior in our upcoming classes.)

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Enjoy the time with your families.

Congratulations!

A huge CONGRATULATIONS goes out to the cast and crew of "Willy Wonka"! You guys were fantastic last night! Keep up the good work! I'll see you tonight as well.

Thank you to all of the servers at the dinner theater for not spilling food and finding that iced tea. :-)
