Quarter One Week Six

This week the Symphonic Band has been working on Maynard Madness, discussing cut time and the Eb Major Scale. Maynard Madness starts in Cut time or 2/2 time, so we have been learning about how to read and say rhythms in cut time.

The Wind Ensemble has been focusing on Ensemblero and Fortress. We have been working on all three forms of the C minor scale. There is a test on Thursday this week on all three forms of the C minor scale in two octaves, memorized, along with the arpeggio quarter note = 92.

The marching band will have a community performance of this year's show on Saturday, September 20th at 11:00am at the OVHS Football stadium. Come a check it out before the Apple Butter parade!
