After a successful FIRST concert and a few weeks of break, the Beginning Strings (aka "Power Chords") will get back to business this week (January 12 and 14).
Violins will have their first practice on Tuesday morning, cellos will meet on Thursday morning, and both groups will get back together on Thursday, January 14 at 3:30 pm.
We were able to conquer the wonderful world of Christmas music in December, and now it's back to work through the Essential Elements book (please make sure your students bring those, along with their instruments, back to school next week!)
These kids have made such excellent progress in a few short months. In these upcoming months, I can only imagine how much more they'll grow! Please remember, a huge part of this growth will come from practice time at home. The required amount of practice is one hour per week. Practice logs should be filled out and initialed each week before group rehearsals on Thursday afternoons.
