Solo/Ensemble Results
Post date: Mar 03, 2014 3:53:12 AM
On Saturday, 30 performances from West High created a wonderful day of chamber music and solos.
We had many individuals performing a solo for the first time, and many of those firsts included a first performance with a piano accompaniment - no easy task!
Each performance is judged, much like the Large Group Festival: I - Superior, II - Excellent, III - Good, IV - Average, V - Poor.
I am proud to say that all of our students earned a III or better - yahoo! In my estimation, all of the 3s easily could have been 2s, except nerves got in the way of students performing at their top level. With this in mind, I am quite proud of all of our students and all should be commended on a job well done!
Highest praise does go to those folks who earned a I - Superior ranking - a tough feat this year. Throughout the entire days' performances (8am - 12:30 in two rooms, then 1:30-4:30 in a single room, easily 80+ performances), only 21 Superior rankings were handed out. We captured the majority of them, with 8. Yahoo and well done, all!
