Ella's Band Recital - December 9

Ella and Brianna

Ella setting up to play the clarinet.

Ella has been in band this year and is learning to play the clarinet.  Fortunately there is a lady in our ward that used to play in school and she let us borrow her clarinet.  This saves us from having to rent/buy one as the schools don't have them to loan out anymore.  She has done really well.  She challenged herself to learn a song all on her own and use it to audition for a solo part for the holiday recital.  She and the other girl pictured, Brianna both did the same song as a duet.  The band teacher couldn't choose between them. Brianna was actually on Ella's soccer team and they are in the same class and are great friends.  They performed so well together.  I was nervous that they wouldn't start or end on time, but they did!  They sounded the best of all the solo's!
