Middle School Choir Reflection
This has been an outstanding year! Once again I am attending a 2-day Master Class with Hector Olivera in Sarasota, Florida. For the fourth year I have been a featured pianist with the Naples Concert Band and I have completed my fifth year as a percussionist with them. In addition, I created and performed in a dueling piano show on Marco Island. I continue to accompany the North Naples Middle School Choir and I began accompanying Marco Island Charter Middle School Choir this year. As in the past few years, I will once again work at the Dr. Martin Luther King Administration Building working on aligning the music curriculum with the Florida Standards. Our art, technology teacher and myself along with other related arts teachers from Lely

    In an attempt to better understand what college is like, I recently interviewed Daniel Labonte, a music teacher in the Spruce Mountain school district. He is a music teacher at the elementary school, a chorus teacher at the middle school, and the music director for the high school drama program. Not only does he do this, but he also works outside of the school playing trombone for other musicals. He is fairly well known within the music community because of this.…

    Music has always been a very important part of my life. As a child, I was mesmerized by Disney’s Fantasia 2000 and watched the Disney sing-a-longs over and over. I began playing piano at a young age, and in middle school added more instruments to my list, such as flute, saxophone, and ukulele. I have had many opportunities to perform both solos and ensemble performances, but none of them have impacted me as much as my interactions with an elderly man named Mr. Roland Goff, or as we called him in my church, Brother Goff. When I was in 5th grade, I played a piano song in church entitled A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief. A couple years later, Brother Goff’s wife passed away and my family started spending more time with him. He told me he remembered the song I played in 5th grade and how much he loved it. I had many other opportunities to play in church as well, and he remembered and enjoyed each of them. It was then that I started…

    That being said, I can hardly express my full measure of gratitude for the astounding love and kindness expressed to me by others as I transitioned into my life here at Seminole. In this short period of time I have experienced a greater level of respect amongst peers, a deep-seeded passion and dedication for what we do, and a more vibrant community of musicians and performers than I ever could have begun to imagine. The group we have here is truly unique, and having an outside perspective I can truly appreciate the power this program has to change…

    Learning piano was like learning a new language. It allowed me to communicate with others in a different, more expressive way. When I play piano, I am immersed in a different world where my creativity shines through. For the past ten years, I have continued my piano lessons and performed at many recitals and concerts. I have earned many accomplishments, including a gold cup and five consecutive Superior ratings from performances. Music has given me opportunities to let go and be myself. It has shaped me into an ambitious person, willing to try new things with an open mind. Piano has become so essential in my life and has helped me flourish from a shy girl into a confident young…

    As eighth grade started I told myself that I was going to make new goals and achieve them. One of my goals was to be in choir. I always thought and imagined what it would be like singing on stage in front of millions of people. I was always singing no matter what, from singing in the shower, in the middle of the grocery store, and singing in the car with my family. Nothing stopped me, definitely the day I got told news that changed my attitude about everything.…

    I’ve also enjoyed dedicating part of every summer to improve my musical skills by attending various camps, including Longlake Camp for the Arts, Eastern U.S. Music Camp at Colgate University and Interlochen Camp for the Arts, where I was just invited to return on the basis of last summer’s performance. While I know that there may be others with comparable or better talent, my passion serves as the constant motivation for me in music as well as other aspects of my life. For example, being a dedicated Honor Roll student, taking weekly Temple classes and performing community service has been important and demanding as well. Managing these priorities has taught me a lot about tenacity, friendship and balance.…
