Melody in Spring

There wasn't a Fall concert at Stuart Hobson, so we had to wait until April to hear Owen play with the orchestra. While the Stuart-Hobson band has dozens of players (and the chorus must have at least 40), there are currently only twelve strings (seven from the sixth and seventh grade orchestra; five from the eight grade -- they've lost a few due to some ill-scheduled math classes). Since the two orchestras don't normally all play together, they only had one afternoon to rehearse in full. It was a bit rough at times, but they managed to pull off Scottish Fiddle Medley, William Tell Overture, and Owen finally got to fully emote before an audience to music from Les Miserable. (Not to mention joining the band in its finale, My Shot).
