District 117 Orchestra

We are the orchestra program in District 117 in northern Illinois. Music's kind of a big deal.

I’d also like to note that this is the first time they haven’t cut away during Radetzky March but actually let us listen to the whole piece. Maybe because Yannick is actually interesting and doing something cool.

We've once again reached that part of the year where kids write so damn many second inversion chords.

“I’ll never forget my first three weeks with the CSO,” said assistant principal bass Alexander Horton. “Our performances here in Chicago and in New York [at @carnegiehall] were some of the most exciting concerts of my life.” https://t.co/F0lhqmeGCH
