The Next Big Event: Concert Festival

Concert festival is our next big group event. We have started the process of picking out music for it. I have registered two different groups. One group will go in Class III and the other will go in Class V. This means the Class III group will be playing grade III music from the South Carolina festival list and sight reading grade 1.5 music in the sight reading room. The other group will have to sightread grade 3 music. Taking 2 groups will be a lot of work on me but in the end it will be worth it.

One of pieces we are considering is a new one called "Nitro!". It is not yet on the South Carolina Concert Festival list but I have submitted it. You can listen to it if you follow this link: NITRO!

Although concert festival is one of my favorite events in which to participate, it is perhaps the most difficult one in which to succeed. As of late, the judging has really gotten tough but I guess that is what makes it so rewarding when you get a superior rating.
