Annah was among the students her band director chose to play in the Heart of Illinois Conference Honors Music Festival Band today. Annah spent the day playing her clarinet, learning some great music with a wonderful guest director, Mr. Jim Tallman.
Our school's band director, Mr. M. was one of this year's coordinators for the festival, and announced the guest conductor.
3 clarinetists from RHS were part of the band. (See Annah in the top right corner?)
Annah's mouth has been hurting her quite a bit recently with her braces, so she said it was hard work and she will be sore tomorrow. But, she really enjoyed the day, had fun, and was really glad for the opportunity.
The band sounded wonderful at the evening concert!

The choir performed first. I recorded one of their songs, "Jambo!" (That's our school choir director and elementary music teacher playing the djembe.)
Here is a YouTube playlist of the 5 songs the band played on the concert:
I'm so glad Annah had this opportunity!
