The high school concert tonight was wonderful!
The choir sang first.
Annah did a beautiful job with the violin solo on one of my favorite songs...

I love this piece.

It had been a year since the Vocal Jazz Ensemble performed at school, and it is a very different group now. They've been practicing 2-4 times a week before school. You have to really love singing to do it at 7:40 in the morning, but it shows. This group really knocked the audience's socks off tonight!
VIDEO: Their first song was Embraceable You.
VIDEO: I'll Be There
Annah is singing alto in this group this year, and really enjoyed getting to sing all the suspensions in these pieces.
VIDEO: Voice Dance is an incredibly difficult piece, but it was so fun for them to work on and perform, and fun to watch/hear them conquer it!
Very, very proud of these young singers!!!
Although their marching band season ended only about 4 weeks ago, the HS concert band performed 5 great pieces tonight.

VIDEO: Fum, Fum, Fum!
VIDEO: I only recorded the last couple minutes of Sleigh Ride, because I wanted to catch Addie happily playing the whipcrack, and Jalen playing the horse whinny with a horse mask on.
VIDEO: This is the first time the band played an encore, and the audience loved it. It is the theme from Game of Thrones. Annah plays a clarinet solo at the very end.
It was a great concert for all the ensembles!
Addie played the school alma mater for the choir, and wanted a picture with me after the concert. I don't know what I will do when she graduates in the spring.
I love sharing these concerts with my kiddos!
