Goals of my 2012 band year

1) to be able to use as many auxiliary instruments as possible throughout the year.

2) to spend time on any playing music test, unlike other years preparing 5 minutes before playing

3) to play more cleanly on snare and other instruments of the sort

These are good goals for you. I would say that an overall theme in these goals is to practice more! I think you have a lot of talent and you just need to keep fine tuning your skills. Keep up the good work!! Good essay!

//What Music Means to Me // & //Six Words that Describe Me as a Musician//

Music for enables me to express myself physically and mentally. Playing the drums is a way to express myself physically. I always love to play catchy tunes and cadences that seem to stick with me through the years I have played. Especially in marching band. Unfortunately though I have not been able to play much in marching band but I am looking forward to possible chances to play. A way that I express myself mentally is by relaxing when playing music. It makes me feel calm to hear the many different sounds of the band. Listening to the bands tone and rhythm makes me feel at ease
