On December 10th, the Instrumental Concert performed a show-stopping performance. 

Hayden interviewed Mayre Damour and Nathan (he preferred not to give his last name). Mayre was one of the violinists who performed in the concert, and Nathan was a clarinetist in the advanced jazz band.

 

Interviewer: What was your favorite part?

Mayre: My favorite part was when we got on stage because I gained some confidence. I knew that I could play well.

Nathan: One of my favorite parts was when the advanced orchestra played.  

 

Interviewer: What was the first thing you did?

Mayre: We went into the chorus room and started to tune our instruments.

Nathan: We played and practiced for the first 20 minutes, then we tuned our instruments.

 

Interviewer: Were you at nervous at all?

Mayre: Yes, I was very nervous because it was my first time performing. 

Nathan: My nerves were on and off the whole time.

 

Interviewer: When did those nerves calm down?

Mayre: I was nervous the whole time, even after I left.

Nathan: My nerves calmed after I had performed.

 

Interviewer: What was your favorite song?

Mayre: My favorite song was Rock Ballad. You might think it is simple but we added dynamics to is so it was really interesting.

Nathan: My favorite song was Chattanoga Cho-cho.

 

Interviewer: How long have you been playing your instrument?

Mayre: I have been playing the violin ever since I was 6. I stopped playing it for 2-3 years and started again in 4th grade.

Nathan:I have been playing the clarinet since 4th grade, I am in 8th grade now.

 

 

Congrats to everybody that performed! Make sure you check out the next concert (If they have one).
