"Joy is not in things, it is in us."

This is how much I love Rivier!

Rich

Think about it.  Thankfully I am rich in many ways - thank YOU all for making me that way!

Famous.... on PANow!

Check out our very own Harshina on the cover of PANow this morning:

Way to go, chica!

African drumming ensembles

Just a reminder that if you'd like to be part of an African drumming ensemble for our concert on June 6th, please sign up on the sheet that will be posted on my homeroom door (7C).  It looks like we'll be performing "Luba" and our own composition based on the base pattern of "Marketplace."

Jazz choir recordings

Hi ladies.  Your "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" recordings are ready - they're just individual tracks of the piano playing each part, Soprano 1 through Alto 2 on 4 separate tracks.  If you need to use a recording for practice, bring me a USB sometime soon and I'll transfer your track over to you.

Pokarekare Ana

Senior Choir - check this out.  Such a nice (and different) arrangement of Pokarekare Ana.  Beautiful!

African drumming tutorial

Here are a couple drum ensemble tutorials that we can use as a model for our performance at the final concert on June 6th.  These are very beginner ensembles, so we could take these parts and embellish them, add other rhythms, auxiliary percussion, etc. Check them out!





If you're interested in playing in an African drumming ensemble for our concert, please leave me a comment here.  I'll also post a sign-up sheet on my 7C door tomorrow.  This will be fun, and a perfect fit for our "Around the World" theme!
