Day Three: First Concert

Day two with classes and I experienced my first ensemble concert. One of the 6th grade choirs sang, the Second Year 6th graders in Orchestra performed, and the Second Year band students performed. It was in the middle of the school day, and it was mostly for each other. They did a great job, and they are really talented groups. The Survey classes were great and very interesting. They were also very educational, if I ever wanted to know anything about music while I was growing up, I had to do research and listening on my own time. The lessons Mrs. Fazio has planned are also very interesting to the students, we've already talked about auto-tuning, dub-step, and movie scores. Very cool. I ended the day with the advanced orchestra. It was interesting to see so many different levels of players all sitting together and playing, and Ms. Belzer makes it look easy. I am already exhausted trying to keep up a full schedule of practicum, full schedule of campus classes, and a full schedule of homework and things to do, on the plus side, I am already feeling a rhythm to my schedule and spurts of energy (signs of life) throughout the day. It's a start :)
