The La Cima Middle School Band had a fabulous performance at the Winter Arts Fair held December 9, 2009. The turnout was huge and the reception from the audience was very positive.
More great things lie ahead in the spring with a district band, orchestra, and choir festival, Forum Music Festival in California, and the Spring concert. Expectations are still high and students should continue to practice music from the plethora of books they have in their folder and the music library. They are allowed to practice at their leisure over the holidays by picking music they like and practicing it. They should also continue to practice scales (concert pitch) F, Bb, Eb, Ab, and add C and Db to the list.
Beginners should continue to practice music from "Accent On Achievement" and listen/play along with the accompaniment CD included in the book.
The Spring will be even more challenging but the students of La Cima Band are fully capable of meeting those demands!
