Winter Concert Grade 5: Tuesday, December 20
Winter Concert Grade 4: Monday, December 19
Playing an instrument at Barnstable United is very exciting, especially if you play the violin. The violin belongs to the string family of instruments. It makes beautiful sounds as the bow stick glides across the strings.
This year I have classes every Tuesday, and we perform concerts twice a year, one in December and one near summer. We perform at BUES and at the Barnstable High School Performing Arts Center. Playing the violin is very fun in 5th grade because we learn complex songs, and songs that we probably knew when we were little such as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Jingle Bells. If you didn't play in 4th grade but start in 5th grade, you're a beginner. Ms.Nickerson encourages us to practice the songs at home so we can catch up to the second year students.
As you can see, it's fascinating to have the opportunity to play the violin in 4th and 5th grade!!
