• What did you get out of the experience?  What did you learn?
• Did the lunchtime meetings we had help you understand the show better?
• What do you think about Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, and Billie Holiday?  What do you remember learning about them?  Do any of their experiences connect to things in your life?
• How does this music relate to the music you listen to?

Listening to it again today, I'm very proud of our singers.  One song posted here is called "O'Desayo."  It has a part in it two different groups are singing different parts at the same time.  This is note easy to do!!!!  We still need to do more work on this, but it is coming along very well.  GREAT JOB CHORUS MEMBERS!!!

Check out the clips (http://www.freewebs.com/mcgorrymusic/chorus.htm) and post a comment.  KEEP IT POSITIVE.  If you find something that you think needs work, use language like this..."I think we should work on ......." or "We can try to blend together more here...."

Have you had a class experience where we were learning a song on recorder and you just couldn't understand it?  Do you wish you had a one-on-one lesson to help you?  Well, I'm working on it!  Soon, I plan to post some videos of short lessons on how to play a particular song.  I'll have them for recorder and for keyboard. 

So, speak up!!!  Add your comments, questions, or just say hello on this page.  Keep it positive!
