Turn up the Heat!

The motherboard went out on the furnace in the band room on Monday evening, which has made for a very cold last couple of days. The closest a new motherboard could be found was Kansas City, so Tuesday, Wednesday and part of Thursday were very cold in the band room! We didn't have lessons those days and group band rehearsals happened in the equally HOT choir room downstairs. We watched a Mannheim Steamroller video and discussed some performance styles. Thankfully the heat is back on and working so we can have some great rehearsals today!

Students were sent home with a note about the concert on Dec. 20th. It is at 7PM at the middle school. I'd like choir students to be here by 6:30 for warm-up and band students by 6:40. Students have been asked to dress nicely--no jeans or tennis shoes if at all possible. If this is a problem, give me a call or email. I have some nice clothes that I can lend out!

It should be a wonderful concert! I am very much looking forward to it!
