This year Z has been part of two musical groups, both of which can be joined by audition only. Brio is an orchestra group (Z plays the cello) and Jazz Ensemble is for brass instruments (Z plays the euphonium). Both these groups practice weekly before school, and Z has been very faithful in attending and participating. Unfortunately, because of covid they have not been able to have their usual round of concerts. However, last week they were finally allowed to have one public performance with a limited audience. So I got to go and see Z perform and it was so fun! Z has turned into a fun and happy musician who clearly loves playing with a group. Brio was lovely, but it was clear that Z really loves Jazz Ensemble. What a good time we all had! It made me so sorry that there hadn't been other concerts, but also really thankful that I got to see at least one.
Here are a few videos. They are terrible, but they're all I've got.
