Mardi Gras Music Making

Our Trinity Trumpet class had the opportunity to perform Oh When the Saints for our school’s Mardi Gras Parade! Giving students the opportunity to perform is a crucial part of learning an instrument. Performing can be scary, so giving students ample opportunities to practice this skill is vital. Not only does this give students a goal to work towards and something to be excited about, performing is an excellent outlet for students to practice being in front of other people and boost their self confidence. (Note: This is a scientific phenomenon that has been studied and proven - to read more on the correlations between music and self confidence, check out this research study.)

I look forward to continuing to enhance my students’ confidence and give them fun playing opportunities in the future - stay tuned!
