Our band and orchestra program is in a desperate need for an upgrade. Over the past few years, we have expanded our numbers to the point where we now have four performing groups! We have always had at least one band and orchestra class, but this year we finally have enough numbers to have specialized advanced and beginning groups. This provides students with the opportunity to grow and develop with other students at the appropriate skill level. With the great expansion, the program recently got a brand new room in order to house all of us, but their is just one more thing that we need: a place to sit! Now I know what you are thinking: Chairs? Really? Not instruments or music? Believe it or not, posture is one of the most important aspects of making music. Normal every day plastic school chairs do not provide the proper support that a musician needs in order to make their best sounds. The chairs that we are looking to purchase are designed specifically to encourage students to sit with the best possible posture they can have. If they can sit right, they can breath or bow correctly, which will lead to them making the best sounds possible! These chairs will be used every day by our students and they be that much closer to becoming exceptional musicians because of this one little thing. It all helps to make a difference in their lives and in our program.
