Anne has been bugging me to put up the video of her Spring Band Concert. She has really enjoyed playing percussion this year and is one of only 2 girls in 7th grade percussion. She is looking forward to Symphonic Band next year and marching band when she gets into High School.
Part 1
They really are pretty good for a 7th grade band and her band teacher must be a saint to put up with a whole room full of knuckleheads. I happen to know that the band teacher is single and as I was watching the concert I had the brilliant idea that maybe we should line up Miss Band Teacher with a certain single uncle of Anne’s. I asked Anne what she thought of the idea and she wasn’t keen on it. I sent single uncle an email asking him what he thought of the idea and got no response back. Come to think of it, I have no idea how I would broach the topic to Miss Band Teacher even if single uncle was amenable. So much for my match making skills.
Part 2
I could hear the xylophone and drums – could hear them very well! My favorite number was the last one, the one with the drum solo. It was fun to listen, watch and be a part of this concert. A lovely percussionist and a very well done video.
Miss Anne Marie looks splendid on the back row strumming half of the xylophone.
Correction: I won’t be in Symphonic band until 9th grade – if I ace the tryouts.
