FALCON NOTES March has arrived and we are already in the thick of things. Performances are a result of long hours of dedication and practice. We have many performance opportunities this month and I invite everyone to support our CV musicians. Tonight is opening night for our musical "Pippin." Complete performance days and times are below. You won't miss the spotlights as the show opens at 7:30pm. If you are free Saturday, go to Glendale High School and listen to our Symphony Orchestra and Concert Band perform in the annual GUSD festival. In two weeks, we will have our Spring concert. It is extremely important that you make time and attend this concert. I guarantee that you will be impressed and amazed. Each class is working on high level music and I am proud of the progress that each class is making. Every year, the concerts get better and better. Have a wonderful weekend! |
