October 23 Update

Hi, everyone,

I am so proud of how well everyone is doing after only 3 band rehearsals!  I want to encourage you to keep chugging along! There is a lot to put together when playing a wind instrument, and I admire your accomplishment and perseverance. You are learning to read music (a whole new language), how to sit and hold an instrument, where to put your fingers for each note, how to blow enough air into your instrument, how to train your embouchure muscles...and to do it all while watching and counting with my beat! 

This week is Hallowe'en Dress-Up Week at Joyful Sounds Music Studio.  As an optional activity, anyone wanting to wear a costume to band practice may do so.  Siblings are welcome to participate, too :-)  The room is quite warm, so I recommend light-weight costumes or layers. 
Happy practising!
Andrea
