From February 11th through the 14th, I had the privilege take 19 students from grades 7th-12th to Tuscaloosa, AL for the 2010 All-State Orchestra Festival. Despite a freak winter storm (quite majestic), we had rehearsals all day on Friday and Saturday, which culminated in a fantastic concert on Sunday (Valentine's Day) in the beautiful Moody Concert Hall on the campus of UA. Three of our students managed to earn a second-chair placement in their orchestras. The middle segment of the concert featured two of our violist as soloists. Way to go, Miranda McAfee and Taylor Tucker! I am so privileged and blessed to work with such amazing kids on a daily basis. Thanks to all (including students back home) who helped these students achieve this honor.
