Check out these two clips of some rocking percussionists. One clip is of a guy that plays tenors, and the other is of a marimba soloist. What do you think about these videos?

“Music is exciting. It is thrilling to be sitting in a group of musicians playing (more or less) the same piece of music. You are part of a great, powerful, vibrant entity. And nothing beats the feeling you get when you've practiced a difficult section over and over and finally get it right. (yes, even on the wood block.) Music is important. It says things your heart can't say any other way, and in a language everyone speaks. Music crosses borders, turns smiles into frowns, and vice versa. These observations are shared with a hope: that, when schools cut back on music classes, they really think about what they're doing - and don't take music for granted."
The Hewitt-Trussville Middle School Band is made up of over 260 students in grades 6-8. We are located in Trussville, Alabama. The band is under the direction of Mr. Brandon Peters, Mrs. Stephanie Ezell, and Mr. Scott Waid.
