We are so blessed with the music department at Arlington. Alyssa went back to the Pops concert as an alumni tonight and was filled with joy and pride at what she has been a part of for so many years. The quality of music that is performed there is awe inspiring, We are so fortunate to have such a gold mine ...filled with such sparkling treasures....wonderful, talented, dedicated, passionate music teachers and students. Bravo!!
"Music is exciting. It is thrilling to be sitting in a group of musicians playing (more or less) the same piece of music. You are part of a great, powerful vibrant entity. And nothing beats the feeling you get when you've practiced a difficult section over and over and finally get it right.......Music is important. It says things your heart can't say any other way, in a language every one speaks. Music crosses borders, turns smiles into frowns and vice versa."
