Oboe Phenomenon

Victoria has excelled at playing the oboe and made concert band at Briarhill Middle School. They were able to play at the 8th grade football at our brand new Marcus Marauder Stadium! We are extremely proud of her.
The band sounded great.  It is amazing that most of these 7th and 8th graders have only been playing their instruments for a year.  Victoria has become quite the musician and is teaching herself to play the saxaphone as well.  She is preparing to play in the marching band in high school at Marcus and the oboe is one of the instruments that doesn't march.  So she will play the sax in marching band and the oboe for concert band.

Savanna's Durufle Concert

Savanna before she preformed her Durufle Requiem concert with the combined Marcus and Flower Mound High School's varsity mixed choirs. These two high school choirs combined and had a guest director from Baylor University direct the choir.  There was a small orchestra consisting of violins, viola, cello, bass, timpani, trumpets, harp and an organ.  We are so proud of her making it into varsity mixed choir as a sophmore! She has a natural gift that we are so blessed to be a part of.
The combined choral groups making beautiful music together. The concert was fabulous and they sounded as good if not better then the professionals! look out Mormon Tabernacle Choir!
You can see Savanna right in the middle below the random music stand.  What a neat experience for these kids.
