Spring Concert music has been handed out to all of the 5th grade band students. We have a wide variety of musical selections planned for our final performance of the season. The students are anxious to begin working on these pieces to play for you!
Students also received a solo to prepare for this spring season as well. The 5th grade band members each get the opportunity to perform a solo for Mr. Miller, our high school band director. He will listen to the band members perform in May and will write comments on their performance. He will focus on things that they are doing really well and also give the students suggestions on how to become better players on their instruments. This is a wonderful learning opportunity for our beginners to get another band director's perspective on their progress. I will accompany all of the students on the piano, so it will not be necessary to find a piano accompanist for your child. When we get closer to the performance date, I will send home a schedule and all parents/guardians/grandparents are invited to come in and listen to their child's performance. The solos will be performed in the band/orchestra room at each elementary campus.
There is still plenty to do before we wrap up this school year, so please continue to encourage your child's practice time at home as they have alot of music to prepare before the end of the year. So until next week, keep practicing.......
Mr. Hubers
