The Honor Band students took a poll this week. And it was determined that we needed a change in our music selections. Tricycle was put to rest and the students have really latched on to our new piece: Moscow, 1941! They learned the entire piece in a very short 4 days. Your child should be diligently working on short segments of the 3 pieces listed below. Working slowing and in great detail, each student should be repeating those segments over and over.
Party tomorrow, 4pm – 6:30pm. See you there!
