Christmas Concert

This past Wednesday was the Christmas program for the orchestra and choir. Kira plays violin in the orchestra. She was recently moved up to the advanced group, so things are getting a little harder. She admitted to "pretend-playing" her violin during a couple of the hard spots in the concert. The choir performed first, then the orchestra...




Here's a little video clip of "Jolly Old St. Nicholas"...



For the finale the choir and orchestra did "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" together...the choir blocks Kira from view (how rude!), but you can still see her little Santa hat and violin bow sticking up over the shoulder of the dark-haired girl. The guy in front of me got in the way while I was recording. Have you ever wanted to yell at a total stranger??? Don't worry...I restrained myself.



Here's Kira with Mrs. B, her orchestra teacher, after the concert. Thanks for all that you do, Mrs. B!
