Boot Camp day 2

Tuesday started on time - amazingly! - with a quicky workshop on finger action on the finger board. We had 2 visitors today - Zevon who graduated last year and Bekka who will be working with the violin section in Chamber this year.

During Group time today we played some Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, and then some Star Wars, and a quick review of Seasons of Love.

Then we did some bonding activities, including some yoga - apparently Joel is quite the "Crow". Then we headed out to the front lawn for a little water ballooning and some "trust" activities. The popsicles were a welcome treat on this 90 degree day!

Then Chamber rehearsed some with Bekka, then on their own, then with Ms. S, on the Britten. Meanwhile, Sinfonietta and Titan Strings worked on Thom Sharp's Giant Slimy Squid - what a fun piece!

See ya Wednesday!
