Final Orchestra Concert Tuesday May 29th

Our Final concert is Tuesday May 29th at 6:00 pm
All students must arrive at the Gym no later than 5:15 for tuning.
Please be in your best Sunday Clothes
Boys slacks and a collared shirt-a tie if you have one is great
Girls a dress or skirt and blouse if ideal.  If you are a girl playing the cello please make sure you have leggings or tights for modesty.
We are very excited to show you what we have learned this year.  Please encourage your students to run through their music for the concert.  They have been instructed to play each song 15 times before the concert.  That breaks down into 3 times each for 5 days.
Thank you for your support of our Program.  It has been a pleasure to work with your kids.
If you have any questions please contact me through email
