Our concert is fast approaching and in order for us to perform our best for you, parents, we are going to need your help!
We have only four more class sessions before our concert. That means we have either five weeks to prepare (if we practice at home) or 4 hours (if we only play in class.)
Parents, we need your help with the following things:
Please help us to remember our instrument and book every Tuesday.
Please remind us to practice the songs for our concert. Playing through each song on a daily basis will help us to know that we are prepared, and ensure that we have time to work out those tricky areas in some songs.
To help with that, we have included a list of possible concert songs below:
1. London Bridge P.8 (Woodwinds A, Brass B, switch on repeat)
2. Mozart Melody P. 8
3. Aura Lee P.12 (Woodwinds A, Brass B)
4. Frere Jacques Round P. 12 Flutes, Clarinets, Trombones, Trumpets
5. When the Saints Go Marching In P. 13
6. Old MacDonald Had a Band P. 13
7. Hard Rock Blues P. 13
8. Power Rock (handout)
9. Let’s Go Band! (handout)
In addition, you child should practice the solos and trios hand outs if they have volunteered to play in a small group.
We have learned a lot this year and are so excited to share what we have learned with you.
Thanks so much, and see you on May, 19th!
