HOORAY, PERCUSSION ENSEMBLE!
The first percussion ensemble concert was a hit! The group performed with ease. Because of the wonderful job these guys did, we will be celebrating on Monday the 12th. How?....That's a surprise!
The members of the Percussion Ensemble were handpicked and raved about by their teachers. It was a hard decision of whom to pick because we have so many great students at ACA!
- On Ya Bike! - This is a simple song, but is made more exciting by the dynamics, starting soft and ending very loud!
- Music Alone Shall Live - This piece is very melodic and gives the xylophones, metallophone, and keyboard a chance to shine.
- Calypso Dream - This is the hardest piece out of them all. Each member has to depend on themselves since their part is not the same as anyone elses. The effect is magnificent!
