On August 13 and 14th the junior and senior band performed in the West Australian Schools' Concert Band festival, where they could gauge how they are performing compared to other schools and also to receive adjudication from other professionals.
On Thursday evening the junior band did a fantastic job and received an Excellent in the C Division. Wade and Meagan played very well, as did all the band members.
On Friday evening the John Calvin Christian College Concert Band received an Outstanding for their performance in the A division. Their final comment from the adjudicators was "...I think one of the most musical performances we will hear this weekend. Very well balanced, mostly good pitch, nice shapes. WELL DONE..." Cody did very well as the lead alto saxophone player. All that practicing certainly has paid off!!
What a fantastic performance!! Praise God for the talents He has given us.
PS Could someone please tell me how to put a link on here... the senior bands' songs have actually been put on youtube and I'd love to add that to my post here....

Marg, to put a link on, go to the youtube site you want to post, and highlight the address in your web browser. If you press Ctrl and C on your keyboard, that will "copy" the link.
GO back to your blog, and click Ctrl and V to "paste" the address into your blog post. In your blog it should show up in a blue text, this is called a hyperlink, and people will be taken to that website just by clicking on it.
I'm no computer expert, but I think that should work.
