Concert Chorus @ HOME 1 (3/26/20)
CLICK HERE to watch a video update from Mr. Jones, THEN, read below!
We would love to encourage our student-musicians to use this time as an opportunity to indulge in music as a healthy hobby on a daily basis. This, of course, is always the goal & hope for our students, but life (social calendar, academic pressure, extracurricular commitments, etc.) can make this difficult to achieve. We are encouraging students to pursue growth at their own time-frame! Here is how!!
High School Band/Chorus
(Band) Everyone can be spending time (daily) on concert literature. The "concert band" ensemble-page has recordings that can be used to reference or practice with. Scale sheets and fingering-charts can be found on the download-page. Email Mr. Jones with any questions.
(Chorus) I will be working on getting PDFs of all of the songs available to you on this site. Recordings are available on the "concert chorus" ensemble-page and can be used as a reference or to practice with. Please making singing a part of your daily routine.
Everyone can use this time as an opportunity to do a "deep-dive" into their literature and come out of this a more prepared and confidant musician!
