Winter Assembly - BRAVO!

Post date: Dec 22, 2017 1:49:26 AM

The students had a fantastic performance at the Winter Assembly on Thursday, Dec. 21! I am so proud of the progress they have made since the Demonstration Concert. I challenged them with some difficult music for their first combined performance and they rose to the occasion with flying colors!! It was wonderful to see their smiling faces as we performed!

As of Friday morning there was nearly 1200 views of the Cube broadcast and recording - WOW! We hope many of you were able to enjoy watching the broadcast. The assembly and our performance will be available for 30 days - feel free to share with family and friends! Here is the link: https://thecube.com/event/768961 There is a delay at the beginning to the actual start of the assembly & performances: assembly begins at 17:30, band performance at 27:00 and honor choir performance at 46:30.

I have added photos from Winter Assembly (photo credit: Carrie Krupke) and more photos of our Winter Band Party and our Before School Christmas Carol bands to the Photos/Videos tab above.

Winter Break Challenge - students have the opportunity to earn a bonus move to the next country on our Around-the-World Practice Challenge #2 for completing 3 boxes and a chance to sit next to a friend in Big Band for completing 9 boxes. Below is a copy of the Winter Break Challenge - have fun and bring back when school resumes!

It has been a terrific 2017, I have thoroughly enjoyed having your children in band and looking forward to 2018!! Wishing you and your family a wonderful winter break and Merry Christmas!!
