This was the first time Sylvia went to String Project without Annah, since Annah aged out in the spring. This is the whole group of summer camp kids. Sylvia is in a red shirt in the top right. She was the camper who has attended the most String Project camps; this is her 4th.
Sylvia enjoyed getting to spend some time with her friend and fellow cellist Yvin this week!
Sylvia's small ensemble was a string quartet of girls.
There were so many cellists attending the camp, Ms. M decided to take advantage of that and helped them prepare two pieces just for cello!
This is one of the cello choir pieces:
Sylvia was actually one of the older students in the advanced ensemble this time--lots of really young kids this camp. This is the advanced orchestra. Sylvia is on the end, second row from the right.
Our favorite song on the concert was Earigami. If you watch closely, you'll see they each have a colored piece of paper they fold several times during the piece and played with the paper!

After the concert, Jeremy went back to work, and the kids and I stopped at Carl's Ice Cream for sandwiches and treats. It's become kind of a tradition with String Project concerts. Plus, we love it.
We did stop in at Barnes and Noble again to do some more reading, then went to SF park to swim for a bit.
