Informance

Our local elementary school has a fantastic music program. I think it might be the best thing about the school. Last month we went to a small informational performance, or "informance" as it was titled, for Cooper's class. For some reason we can't find the movie we took, so you'll just have to believe me that it was a fun show and Cooper did a great job.

Can you find Cooper? He knew all the songs and sang out on each one.

Yesterday was Peter's informance. He and Cooper don't have the same music teacher (yes, the school has two), which means Peter's material was totally different from Cooper's. 
Peter was very excited to have us there. Bryan came from work to attend both Cooper's and Peter's.

This movie is just over three minutes long, so it might only appeal to the grandparents, but if you have the time to watch, it's pretty awesome. The kids all play the marimbas. Pay close attention to what Peter does while he's playing. I wonder if he'll be more open to playing the piano now that's he's had a taste of the marimbas.

look like so much fun and they did a wonderful job. Good job Peter. I hope we can hear Cooper's too.

Now you can think of this school as the one with the good music program. I am glad the school has redeeming qualities.

Great Job, Peter!

Nathan's new interest is making "instruments"--inspired by...the marimba! His current favorite "instruments" are railroad tracks that he uses like drumsticks.
