Jazz Band

Friday, June 3, 2011

Today was the final music concert at my friend's school. In addition to being in his grade level band, he's also in a jazz band. We went to support him and it was absolutely fantastic. There were three choirs and four bands that performed. My friend ended up winning an award, as well! It was a really fun night.

50 Word Story:

Edge of Music

A sea of instruments catches the light in the gym, the soft rustle of sheet music and impatient feet echo. The conductor comes to the front of the room and raises his baton. All instruments are lifted silently, ready to be played The sounds of sweet, powerful jazz flow freely.
