Holiday Concert

Traditionally the sixth grade and eighth grade bands play for the Holiday Concert.  It is designed to allow parents to hear how their sixth grade student should improve in two years and to allow eighth grade parents to hear how much their students have improved.

This year Rachel is in eighth and Aaron is in sixth so we had a student in each band.  They were both fabulous.  The sixth grade band this year has worked very hard and is playing music ahead of where they should be.  Rachel and Aaron are both becoming quite good on their instruments.  Rachel plays the trumpet and Aaron plays the French Horn.

 

Aaron and Rachel were in a hurry to get to the warm-up room, but with a lot of arm twisting  little gentle persuasion, they gave me a second to snap a shot or two.  The sixth graders do not yet have uniforms.  They purchase them in seventh grade.  So, they were allowed to dress nicely and wear a Santa hat.  Rachel is wearing her uniform. 

 

 

Hey!  Who is that sitting in the first chair in the trumpet section?  None other than Rachel Ray.
