Congratulations to the seniors! Don’t have a photo with everyone (missing Jayden from orch), but these kids are something special. We love you and will miss you, and the band room will always be a home for you.

Seniors 💚💛

Sydney, a jr violist @ JFK had an interesting thought this yr: what if schools received equitable funding for instrumental music? Fortunately, MCPS is working hard to create more balance, but seeing her learn through this process was truly eye opening. A+ job! #thekidsarealright

Check out my PSA https://t.co/ltE1bTaPWK for my @GSCNC Gold Award project. I advocated for equitable funding for music programs, w/ a focus on Downcounty schools. Thx @mocoboe & @MCPS for listening & responding to my questions. #MusicImproves... @JFKHS_Music

Principal Clarinet Stephen Williamson leads his family members—wife Jill (horn) and sons Ryan (horn), Connor (trumpet) and Matthew (tuba)—in an arrangement of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, which the CSO was scheduled to perform earlier this month.

@Ro12Jay @NorthwestJags @MrCarothersPHS @NorthwoodPrin Thanks for doing this! I also recognize a band room with those lockers! 😏

Years ago, I visited my friend #MisterRogers to play this song. This is for the kids and their grown-ups who are at home together. Sing along with me! #songsofcomfort

A good distraction & memory for St. Paddy's Day! Concert Band played Lanigan's Ball, a wind piece comprised of 2 old Irish tunes, last year for the Spring Concert. The students had a blast and they still play it this year when warming up and practicing! 🍀🇮🇪

[JFKInstMusic @JFKHS_Music]

Continuing the trend of featuring students! Kyle’s solo is the perfect way to bring out your inner jig!

[Yo-Yo Ma @YoYo_Ma]

This is for the healthcare workers on the frontlines — the Sarabande from Bach’s Cello Suite No. 3. Your ability to balance human connection and scientific truth in service of us all gives me hope. #songsofcomfort

How can Andy play his solo in Mahler's Third Symphony without the orchestra? Don't worry, Assistant Principal Trumpet René Shapiro comes to his rescue.

Perfection.

[Yo-Yo Ma @YoYo_Ma]

In these days of anxiety, I wanted to find a way to continue to share some of the music that gives me comfort. The first of my #SongsOfComfort: Dvořák – "Going Home”

Stay safe.

@blairprincipal @MsBurgosOjeda Happy birthday Adriana!! Still my role model for amazing eyewear! 🤓

[JFKInstMusic @JFKHS_Music]

@noonetoldme @kedomi You’re welcome! I know things seem up in the air right now, and it’s a pretty fluid and unusual situation!

[JFKInstMusic @JFKHS_Music]

@kedomi @noonetoldme We received clarity yesterday afternoon. Grades are frozen for two weeks, and teachers are not to ask students to complete assignments, but some teachers likely already put up things up in google classroom. But the short answer for now is no.

[JFKInstMusic @JFKHS_Music]

@MBHSmusic Congrats and thanks for hosting and lending a cello bow! 🤦‍♀️😂 Wonderful students!

[JFKInstMusic @JFKHS_Music]

We love Rene! Great job Tehya!

Vanessa, when you told me the Moonlight Sonata is such a beautiful part of your love story bc Kobe vowed to learn it for you, I was speechless... I felt the depth of your love for each other & your girls with every note I played today. The love between u lights up the world.

[Dr. Jae Hwang @EDU_Jae]
