We’ve been sight-reading/exploring a variety of music this week, and next week we’ll have our winter concert plus some spring festival music in our folders so you can get cracking on personal practice. Congratulations to every band student and family for their accomplishments together this fall. Thank you for striving to grow together with an upbeat mindset and regular daily effort at your music and instrument.!”
