Imagination and focus. I find myself contemplating these two states as a wonderful, restful week comes to an end. In the next two weeks we are busy! We perform for the elementary schools this Friday, December 1st. On Friday, December 8th, we play the Winter Spectacular at 7pm in the LCHS auditorium.
I imagine the fun and excitement of all the students at this special time of year. I imagine the music and all of the concert details. I like to focus on these thoughts and all of the students in order to bring out the best performances possible.
We could use one or two more parent chaperones for this Friday’s Elementary Tour. Please come if you have the time, and watch the Orchestra in action!

Ahhhh… I have fully enjoyed a week off! Spent lots of time with family and friends and getting reacquainted with the back side of my eyelids! I’m looking forward to the next four weeks of school before another much-needed break. Lots of music, a parade, concerts and a chance for all of us to get in the right frame of mind for the holidays.
I hope everyone has recharged and is ready for the next four weeks of fun and music. Come see at least one (or all!) of the fine performances that your kids will be doing! It’s a great a busy time for our program and we look forward to sharing it with all of you
