KMEA 2023 Percussion InformationMarch 3rd, 2023 [8:24 PM] Good Morning! Be safe during this weather day…whatever it brings. Couple of reminders, losing a rehearsal day is no good. We still have to learn our concert music and percussion ensemble music. Losing rehearsal today and testing next Tuesday means I won’t see you in class until Thursday. Take time today to go over both. Listen to the music and play with the recordings, links are in our weekly email, especially G and H in Lucid Mantra.
