Holiday Concert






First of all, thank you to everyone who took time out of their busy schedules to work together to put on a fun and very entertaining concert. It was a well deserved break for me and I really enjoyed the production.

My role in the concert was to lead the Jingle Bell group (which to be honest I think was more of a cooperative effort rather than any lead effort by me), I also practiced with a few other talented peers to play the recorder for "Jingle Bells" and I practiced with another talented peer to provide some drumming for a few of the songs. I'm not quite sure what happened to "Drummer Boy" but it was really funny... :-)

I think the most rewarding experience for me was helping a few of my peers perfect the song “Jingle Bells” on the recorder. I tried very hard to think of the experience as I would in a classroom setting (except for the fact that I was dealing with adults and not children). I have a music background so I wanted to support my peers and help them succeed. I think we did a wonderful job and I'm very proud of my peers because they demonstrated courage playing a difficult song in front of everyone. Success!!! :-)
Again if anyone is interested in some of these pictures, please let me know.
PS: The food was delicious!!
