by Thing One
Editor’s note: Ten middle school orchestras from around the region and three adjudicators met at Thing One’s school Saturday morning to perform and attend a workshop.
At the orchestra symposium, we played pieces by Antonio Vivaldi. He lived in the baroque period (around the 1700s). There were three movements but we only performed I and III. The orchestra teacher has two violin baroque bows and is going to buy some baroque cello bows. I play the cello and including me, there are five cellists in the junior orchestra. The junior orchestra also has two violas, two basses, and lots of violinists. At the summer music program, we played down in front of the stage, so this was my first time on the stage and it felt different. Also, there were orchestras from lots of other middle schools. The movements were fun to play and I enjoyed doing them.
