More springtime concerts

The spring concert season continued last week with shows by Andy's middle school band and Christine's high school chorus.

At the Park Middle School concert, the jazz band repeated its performance of "A Band's Gotta Do What a Band's Gotta Do," finishing with Andy's drum solo. He also played on two numbers with the full band, including snare drum on the impressive final piece, "Pulsation." This clip has the ends of those two numbers; as you can see, they were crowd-pleasers.



At the Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School choral concert, Christine sang soprano with the Concert Choir on several numbers, including the two excerpted in this clip: "How Can I Keep From Singing," a Quaker hymn, and "Africa," originally done by the rock band Toto in 1982.
