SCHOOL OF HONK BAND PRACTICE - November 16, 2014
We are very excited about our next session this coming Sunday, 3-5 pm, at 339R Summer St.
We're going to learn a new song called "Do Watcha Wanna," from the streets of New Orleans, a place at the heart of world street band culture, and for our mentors, a musical tradition very close to our hearts. Here's a recording by Rebirth Brass Band.
We'll also review Rock Anthem, Cariñito and Ghostbusters, and then parade outside around 4:15 pm. If you need extra help with any of these parts, we'll be available for individual and sectional practice during the first half hour of our session, from 3:00-3:30 pm. And as always, everyone is encouraged to bring refreshments or any other treat to share with the group.
We are really looking forward to playing together again, and hope you all are too. Recordings and sheet music available on our Facebook Page .
Hope to see you all Sunday!
