Visit from the Lexington Symphony

To prepare for their upcoming field trip, the third grade students had an exciting visit on Wednesday from four members of the Lexington Symphony Orchestra.

Students got up close and personal with the violin, viola, clarinet, and tuba.  (or as we pronounced it, the "TUUUUUUBAAA!").  The performers played beautiful music and taught us about their instruments.   We discussed the four instrument families (string, brass, woodwind, and percussion), and learned a little bit about concert etiquette.

Below are some pictures and video of our fun morning!

Thank you again to the Lexington Symphony for providing us with such an enriching experience! We are looking forward to our field trip to Cary Hall next Thursday January 17!
