I hope everyone had a wonderful spring break. The rains might have kept us indoors, but we still enjoyed a little family time. The break started on such a high note with our talented students showing what they can do in the Annual Lewis Talent Show. Now coming back, April looks to be a busy month preparing for three big school events. Violin and Booming Beats will be getting ready for Garden Fair performances on Saturday, April 21. I’ll have flyers for kids to take home at their next meetings, and I’ll also post the details of the performance on my blog. The Lewis Drama production ends the month with two performance of “The Elves and The Shoemaker” on Friday April 27, and Saturday April 28.  And the following week is Art Night, which features all four performing groups! This means that daily practice is very important. We can only do so much in our once or twice a week rehearsals. I know coming off of Spring Break and picking back up the routines of school can be tough, but getting back into a regular practice schedule will help prepare you for the up coming performances. As my bass teacher used to say, “You can’t cram for a performance. It takes daily, constant, and hard work to perform music on stage. Do the work now so both you and your audience can enjoy it.”
