ORCHESTRA VISITS BLUE OAKS

On January 12th, Blue Oaks had a special visit from the Auburn Symphony. Students were introduced to the various components of symphonic music (compared all the instruments' contributions to that of all the yummy parts of a pizza).

The kids also heard from a very young violinist who proved that with lots of practice you can learn anything you set your mind to.  Check out a video of one of her previous performance! I think we were all a little awestruck!

Interested in attending Auburn Symphony's Annual Family Concert on Saturday, February 3rd at Placer High School? A limited number of tickets are available free of charge in the office. Stop on by and get yours before they're all gone!
