District Honor Band

Thursday, February 21

M&M was invited to play in the District Honor Band this year.  Each school in the district is allowed to send a certain number of students and somehow they work it out with the other teachers so that they have the correct number of each instrument for the group.  They were given the music ahead of time and then they met twice during school hours to practice and then had their concert the evening of their second rehearsal.  The director seemed like he would have been a fun person to perform with and M&M enjoyed having another bassoon in the group.

Here is my low-quality, ipad photo that I took:
