Because we don't know if the restrictions will be lifted, we are still unsure if we will be able to have live concerts. We would like to record our pieces in order to be prepared for a virtual concert. We will record during class time. This means we need to practice just a little harder so that we can begin recording soon. The recordings will be released privately in order to protect you and your children.
Senior Band Keep on with what you are doing. I am hoping to give you links to studies for extra practice, meanwhile keep polishing the pieces you have. Intermediate Band Practice up to the bottom of page 14, when you feel you are proficient at those you may practice ahead to page 15 or 16. This week there was a lot of talk about alternate fingerings. These are especially important for the clarinet. Check your fingering charts and the exercise pages for more info and ways to practice these. Beginner Band This week we worked on Jingle Bells and Rounds. Harold challenged you to practice jingle Bells 5 times each day. This will be one of the pieces we record so you'll want to perfect it. A round in music is a song which can be sung by two or more groups of people. One group starts off and the next group start to sing the same song a bit later. It should sound nice together. When a group gets to the end of the song they start again
