5th and 6th Grade Band Concert

On Thursday, Danny & Jake had a band concert. I was surprised how well the 5th grade band played. I remember when I was in a beginning band and we had a concert. There were lots of squeaks and wrong notes played. From my viewpoint this band did a great job.


It was equally amazing to hear the 6th grade advanced band. It was really fun to hear them play with this being only their second year. In the sixth grade, they teach them to play in parts. It was neat to see the difference between the two bands.



It has been fun for Jake to have his friend, Keslie Egbert in his band. She is the flute player in the pictures. We have enjoyed being able to carpool with them twice a week in the morning for band. Her family will be moving away in a couple of weeks and we will miss them in more ways than one. As a side note, I wanted to thank Jake Egbert for taking all the wonderful pictures at the concert.
