String Orchestra

It’s been a while since I talked about the string orchestra I teach.  We’ve been very busy this year.   I have a great group of kids to work with.  They (for the most part) work hard and want to do a good job.  Last month we had a concert at our local library.  There was probably about 70 in the audience.  Both groups played and did a great job.  I finally figured out how to upload videos to Youtube, so you get to hear and see us perform.

The first year orchestra has been playing since September.  We played:

Can-Can
Mozart Serenade — Mozart
French Folk Song
Theme to Master Piece Theater
Bach Musette — Bach
William Tell Overture — Rossini
Polly Wolly Doodle

Before playing, scroll down and stop the audio feed of the quartet I have playing in my right menu bar, or you’ll have 2 things playing at once.

The second year orchestra has been playing for 18 months (started last September).  They played:

Yankee Doodle — Traditional
Beauty and the Beast — Alan Menken
Trumpet Voluntary — Clarke
Classical Bash
Pomp and Circumstance — Elgar
"Finale" from the First Symphony — Brahms

Before playing, scroll down and stop the audio feed of the quartet I have playing in my right menu bar, or you’ll have 2 things playing at once.

Here are photos of the groups so you can see their shining faces.
