Nipmuc Singers & Their Pets:

Picture
Say hello to Allison and Sadie! 
Allison is a Senior in Vocal Ensemble, and Sadie is my future new best friend (she's excited to meet me, she just doesn't know it yet). 


​
Email Ms. Simmonds with a picture of you and your pet (and their name!), and we'll feature a slideshow of Nipmuc singers and their pets in a future post.

Featured Resource:
Two Minute Music Theory

Picture
Two Minute Music Theory is a youtube channel that breaks down sight-reading, composition, and music analysis into short, entertaining tutorials. A great starting place if you've ever wanted to improve your musicianship!

​Listening Recommendation:

What happens when a composer tries to make a piano sound like a banjo? Piano acrobatics!

Do you have a song/band/concert you think we should listen to? Email Ms. Simmonds with your recommendation.
