Concert Recordings

I hope everyone is enjoying a fun and relaxing vacation. Click HERE to download the recordings of the band songs from the concert. You can save these all as mp4 files (ITunes) and put them on your IPods or other music devices. You can also burn them to a CD. If you'd rather have me burn you a copy, please bring in a blank CD with your name on it.

See you in a few days!!

Congratulations Tessa!

Congratulations to Tessa Weidig who successfully auditioned for the Eastern Region Middle School Band.  On Saturday, November 8th, she played a very difficult solo in front of a judge.  She was rated against dozens of other flute players from Eastern Connecticut and has been selected to make up an honors band which will rehearse and perform this Spring.  

We are very proud of you Tessa!
