Plattsburg Heads to Tuba Christmas by: Blake Oetting
Members of the Plattsburg High School and Plattsburg Middle School band went to The Kauffman Center last Monday to participate in Tuba Christmas. Tuba Christmas is an annual event in which the Kansas City Symphony invites schools or groups of tuba players to practice Christmas carols and then perform in front of a live audience! The group of members that attended were Instructor Jay Nixon, Brett Riche, Nikki Reeves, Shelby Dickerson, Messiah Moultrie, and Austin Mynett.
I had a chance to interview the Senior of the group, Brett Riche. When I asked Brett what music they played at the event, he responded, “We played many Christmas carols, but I can't remember one exact piece of music. I enjoyed them all.”
Riche also said there were there were over 3,000 people in total in the audience. He said, “I am now one of the few people at Plattsburg High that has performed in front of over 1,500 people!” This year’s Tuba Christmas was a huge success! Congratulations Tuba Christmas attendees!
