Parents! Show What You Know
PDF Version
Monday, May 10, 2018 @ 6:30 PM
Tenney Auditorium
Featuring YOU and your child
It’s very simple. Your kids work hard, and so do you.
Come and experience what your child actually goes through when learning a musical instrument.
Come have a good time, a few laughs and invest in your child’s music education. This is a low-pressure evening open to only Grade 5 Band Parents and children.
Parents will play:
Students will play:
You will be using your child’s instrument. Mouthpieces for all instruments can be washed out very easily with soap and water and reeds for clarinet and saxophones can be switched out. If you need additional reeds please let me know. The flute head joints can be wiped off and percussion instruments are not put in your mouth!
Please contact me if you have any questions. I really hope we have participation from all families, as this would mean a lot to your children.
I look forward to hearing you...hopefully!
