Lovejoy Orchestra Newsletter
September 29, 2016
Week of 9.26-9.30
Parents,
This week in orchestra we have continued working on technique. Finger patterns, chromatic scales, upper position work and tone quality. Students are working hard on their concert music and are making big strides. Please help us encourage students to practice at home, even with sectionals and class work everyday students need to solidify their learning at home as well.
Thank you for all of your support!
Have a great weekend!
Mr. Sloan
Mrs. Winkler
