2010 MPA - Orpheus Overture

"Orpheus Overture"
By Jacques Offenbach, Arr. Lloyd Conley

Westwood Middle School of Gainesville, Florida playing at District 4 Musical Performance Assessment in Starke, March 26, 2010. Director: David Dixson

We had so much fun! This was definitely the overall favorite song and Nikki's clarinet solo was amazing. Our final scores were straight superiors from the judges for our prepared pieces, and an excellent in sightreading. ^^

Oh my goah I almost forgot about playing this song!

[Elemarth]

I used to be in this band! We played this... oh, six or seven years ago. I had forgotten what it sounded like.

Nice job! I think you're better than we were.
