Courtney and Caitlin's Honor Orchestra Performance

I have been quite impressed with Caitlin and Courtney's Orchestra teacher. He is a new teacher (very young also) and has been able to take a group of 6th graders, most who have never touched a violin and create this...

The kids began learning how to play last September. Plucking the violin only, no bow. Then in November they began using the bow. To be able to go this far in such a short amount of time is incredible.

Caitlin and Courtney chose to audition for the Honor Orchestra. They were so excited when they found out that they had made it! The teachers gave the students two pieces of music and told them they had one week to learn them and then perform in front of a large group of parents. They had two rehearsals and that was it AND...the orchestra sounded so great!

The twins used this performance as part of their Young Women's Personal Progress. They learned a new talent and then performed. Yeah! Nice job ladies!
