Whew! What a whirlwind the first few weeks of school are! We’ve all settled in nicely though, and are into our normal routines. This week the Grade 7 and 8 general music classes are reviewing Treble Clef notes, and next week are starting Bass Clef. Grade 6 Chorus now has 4 songs in their folders and are learning about Meter, tempo, dynamics and rhythm reading through their music. Chorus members *should* have brought home a notice to be signed and brought back that includes our 2 concert dates so that you can put them on your calendar… I have extras at school if they need another copy.
This week classroom music classes are learning about 2 new composers. Grade 7 is learning about Franz Joseph Haydn and grade 8 is learning about J. S. Bach. Plus!! We’re adding Bass Clef!
