Winter Concert at Pyle

 I was lucky enough to have a parent come in on the day of our winter concert to document the process behind the scenes.  She took over 400 pictures!  I thought I would share a few to give you an idea of what goes into preparing a concert for 250 middle school students.  I wish I could put pictures of them all on here!  Enjoy!

Check out that bow arm.....well don't look too close.

Yea Oboe!

The Youth at Play

Here are a few shots from the Maryland Classic Youth Orchestra concert this past Sunday.  I am the manager of the Symphony this year, and I am lucky to be working with Maestro Mary Poling.  She was private oboe teacher all throughout middle and high school.  Funny how full circle things can come!  The concert was wonderful, the students are truly talented.  Bravo to all!
