Our Mercer Island Band alumni, who remain part of our Band family, have sent along messages to all of us . . . that we've got this!
Band Alumni 'You've Got This' Message
(note: the featured 'opener' artist in this video is Mr. Alan Vizzutti who is one of the premier trumpet players in the world: https://vizzutti.com)
We are starting our inaugural, every Monday night, Mercer Island Porch Concerts. Set your reminder alarm for 7:00 p.m. on Mondays and head outdoors to hear our Mercer Island Band students playing their instrument and serenading our island!
Band Camp was unique this year but it was wonderful. Our week together saw these things happening with our amazing student leadership and Band members:
building community
learning best practices in a virtual world
a virtual visit by principal Walter Kelly
Awesome leadership session with Marvin Reed (former Blue Devil drum and bugle corps drum major)
videos produced by our leadership
connecting with freshmen . . . what is Band?
music, music, music
We continue to be amazed by these students . . .
