May 8th at 2 PM - 2004 Annual Spring Woodwind Recital

Students of Dave Wilson, woodwind teacher, will be performing selections of a classical music nature in an unaccompanied setting.

The overall purpose of the recital is to provide students with the experience of thoroughly preparing a challenging musical selection and then playing it in a performance setting before an audience. There will be no judging or evaluation. The audience, made up of parents and family, is friendly! Our aim is to have fun while engaged in a concerted musical undertaking.

***Congratulations to Central York Middle School trumpeters Matt McSherry, Kate Garvin, and Ben Hamme earned the top 3 section seats. Coincidentally, they are all playing Kanstul trumpets, and have been noted on the Kanstul News Page Oct 8th. Good work!
