The advanced guitar class did a great job with the combined 7th and 8th grade ensembles concert last week! This group has grown by a couple of members since last year, and the new students have blended in seamlessly. They performed “Stop This Train” by John Mayer, which has many challenging harmonies that are played with fingerstyle technique. They have also been working on improvising and created a new section in the song “No Rain” by Blind Melon. They learned about the importance of listening to each other and ways in which visual cues can be used to communicate during an improvisation. This group continues to improve with each performance-it is amazing how far they have come since last year!
