Was supposed to be this week. Ms. Kluga is sending our Wind Ensemble students a virtual hug, as we add the Disney Festival trip to the long list of things that this pandemic has taken away. We are working with Disney, and our tour company, on reimbursement, but with everything shut down it is taking some time. Ms. Kluga will keep you posted.
As part of our distance-learning, Wind Ensemble students have been working together to create a virtual recording of part of our festival repertoire. This week was supposed to be a joyous celebration of our music making and hard work. Attached, please enjoy a section of “Minimalist Dances” by Matt Conaway.

ALL: Sight Reading Factory (one assignment due daily Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday). No Flipgrid video assignments this week.
WE: Acapella Assignment #2 (Minimalist Dances m.132-169) Due Friday 4/17. Please use your daily practice this week to brush up on this section of your music. Some take-aways and reminders from last week’s Acapella assignment:
1. You must wear headphones when you are recording.
2. Wear your YHS Band polo.
3. Follow the tempo and listen to the other members of your group. Be confident, and correct, with your entrances.
4. Play at a reasonable volume so you do not overpower the microphone
5. Do your best! Play with dynamics and a beautiful tone!
CB: Acapella Assignment #1 (Small Group Virtual Ensembles). Due Friday 4/17. Please see attached document with information on how to complete this project.
