On Tuesday, October 20, the 5-12 bands perform at their Fall Concert. When asked what their favorite song was from the concert, Justin Baehr and Payton Rose both replied, “Joy of Life.”
Payton Rose said, “My favorite part of the concert was performing and hearing all of my peers perform for the first or the last time.”
Justin Baehr was proud of his performance, stating, “I did really well and messed up only one note during the entire concert.”
Anne Veleba, the band director, said, “I thought all of the students played very well last night. Yes, there were missed notes and a few squeaks, but no performance is perfect. What I can say is that the songs went better than they had during any of our practices, and that's the most important thing.”
Mrs. Veleba continued, “The plans for preparing for the next two performances have already started, and these are my favorites! Our next concert is the Veterans Day celebration on November 11, and after that is the Vespers Christmas Concert on December 13. To me, nothing is better than patriotic and Christmas music!”
