Currently, we are preparing for our Fall Concert and we use these stands daily. Since their arrival they have been used in student led classes, sight-reading LARGE pieces of music, and for quartet performances. One specific moment that I would like to share is when one of my small student quartets needed to perform a piece and my violins were switching back and forth on parts. A normal stand would be too small to hold all of their music, so these ladies used the newly donated conductor stand. The performance was flawless and was a wonderful example for our other students of how the chosen piece of music should sound.\r\n\r\nWhen the stands arrived I tried to put them together before the students arrived so they would be surprised. They were so excited to see our classroom looking like a true orchestra room and began coming up with ideas of how we could decorate the stand for holiday concerts.\r\n\r\nSo far our ideas for projects are unlimited and the students are thinking BIG for the coming concerts, especially since I now have the room to spread out scores and get a full look at what is happening.
