Jazz Night

My school jazz band played these four songs on Jazz Night, or a concert in which the middle school and high school jazz bands perform. I improvised in Doxy. :D

Pink French Horn?

My school jazz band participates in a music event called the Teen Arts Festival every year. In this Festival, music groups play in front of an audience and judges. After the performance, the judges talk to the groups about what other techniques participants could use or enhance to better their music. I was playing my trumpet during the Teen Arts Festival, but when I was watching another group's performance, something pink and shiny started blinking at me in the light. I turned to find a pink french horn! It was very similar to the one in the picture above. I was very surprised! I'd never seen a pink french horn before, and I'm still wondering the purpose of its color.

Band Concert

My School band playing two of our prepared songs, conducted by Mr. Schumacher. The first song was Ceremony, Chant and Ritual. The second song was Celebration for winds and percussion. I liked this song because of the amazing french horn part in the middle of the piece.
