In early 2021 I commissioned three-time GRAMMY-nominated composer/arranger/trombonist @alanferber to write an arrangement of South African jazz legend Abdullah Ibrahim’s "The Wedding," a composition I have long adored and wanted my students to perform. [thread]
Thank you to our students & families who joined us for our Grade 4 Parent Band Night with Ms. Kassinger & Mr. Bilawsky! A special thank you to our TJL Band Alumni for sharing about your experiences in our wonderful HF music programs! 💚 #OneHFamily@HarborfieldsCSD@HFMusicDept
Since Presidents’ Day always results in new articles, posts and playlists related to jazz icon Lester Young, dubbed the The President (or “Prez”/“Pres,” for short) by Billie Holiday, here’s our positive Prez story (thread) @OfficialNYSSMA @SCMEA_NYS@NYSCAME@HarborfieldsCSD
We’ve been pretty quiet on Twitter, but that doesn’t mean we’re not here! Last month we were able to debut video from of our audience-less winter concert from December, which included the world premiere of @StevenFeifke’s arrangement of “Iko Iko.”
Here’s a septet—six of our @HarborfieldsHS jazz band upperclassmen plus Mr. Antonelli —running through the head of @mattwilsonjazz’s ”Hug.”
We’ll spend some time working it up into a full arrangement for a performance at some point. Too fun! Need a hug? Here it is!
Miss Mara’s music students have been ending class with “mindful musician meditation”. They are practicing mindfulness, kindness, and gratitude.#hfamily @HarborfieldsCSD
