  1. 1) Yorkshire and I would do a picture of flying over countryside in England
    2) Carmen Christmas
    3) Play louder and with more confidence

  2. 1. I think I would do a painting for Yorkshire Ballad, I would probably paint a picture of somebody coming home or maybe a meadow.

    2. I had to work on ucranian Bell Carol the most. My Timpani piece was way to easy and my crash symbol piece was also fairly simple. Mallets are not my strong suit so working with mallets was a challenge for me.

    3. I personaly could work on my Timpani Snare and Mallets

    4. Shoutout to Bennen Sego on the bird whistle and Aj mackal on Bass Clarinet

  3. 1) I would make a cartoon abiut traveling through the Carmen song

    2) personally Ukrainian Bell Carol took the most preparation for me

    3) I need to improve on my mallet skills

    4) I would like to shout out Bean, his bird whistle was sweet.

    3. I can watch the director more to stay in time
    4. Shout out to Quinn Huppert rocking his sax.

  5. 1.) If I were to do a CMP project on one of our songs it would be Yorkshire because I can really envision the setting.
    2.) The song which required the most individual preparation was Ukrainian Bell Carol
    3.) Going forward I can improve my fingering speed and accuracy.
    4.) Shout out to Sarah, your solo was amazing!

  7. 2) Ascend was performed more accurate and the sound was very loud because everyone played out.

  8. 1) The piece I was the most excited to perform was Into The Clouds. Yes I know it’s easy but at like 5 measures before 66 gets you hyped up for 66 and so on and it was just fun to play!

    2) The piece that was performed the most accurately and expressively was Accend because well one you could hear the Tubas which is rare and we all had good articulation and you could hear like all the parts and it sounded super good in my opinion.

    3) I Am, because it has a touching storyline behind it and behind why the composer wrote the piece.

    4) I am gonna shout out ELLEN because her Solo was amazing and she didn’t squeak or mess up so bravo!
