First jazz choir rehearsal today!

All interested students from Grades 7-12 should attend this rehearsal @ 11:40am in the music room.  We will begin learning the jazz standard "Manhattan" today to get a feel for the sound of the ensemble (and the jazz genre for those who are new to Jazz Choir).

Summer 2014 music videos

It has been a summer full of music videos!  Here are a few that I made in my summer adventuring.  Enjoy!

#2. "Happy" by Pharrell Williams (filmed at RYLA 2014 in early August)

#3. "Try" by Colbie Caillat (filmed at Senior RYLA 2014 in August)

International Music Camp

Look who I'm at IMC with this week!  Mackenzie is studying fiddle this week and tells me she is having a great time so far! :)

Run or Dye 2014

This morning in Saskatoon I had a very colourful 5k run with Mrs. Ikert, Drew, Davin, and my university Music Department friend Claire.  It was fun, but nothing compared to COLOUR ME RAD… which you should all register for!  "Rad in Plaid - Team Rivier" - happening September 6th in Saskatoon.  Anyway, this was definitely a more fun way to run 5k than my regular routine, so it was worth it.  Here are a couple pictures of our adventures.  I hope you're all enjoying your summer!

Before the run - nice and clean and white!

Go Rivier! :)
