Sweet Music for Summertime


The Music Appreciation class organized a performance as their final for the summer semester. (How awesome are they!?) These students really went above and beyond. The classmates played pieces they wrote during the course, as well as some popular numbers such as Ashokan Farewell by Jay Ungar and Sweet Is the Work by John J. McClellan. The ensemble included piano, keyboard, violin, viola, flute, guitar and other instruments students practiced during the class. Their instructor Marilyn Cox performed with them. She was proud of her students and glad to have the chance to play with them. She said she thought they were a talented bunch. I think this class has set a new, higher bar for students following them!
