The feeling you get when you’re hanging out, relaxing in the backyard, stuffing your face with way too much food, and just taking it easy on a much needed day off.
My entire high school experience was grounded in chorus. I was in that chorus room before classes, between classes, after classes, and 3 periods a day. That room became my home away from home. All my problems were left at the door, and I was offered a time period of sanity in which to work on…
i can’t agree with these words enough. i couldn’t be there tonight to wish Ms. M off but I can wholeheartedly say that she will go down as one of my biggest influences as to how i approach/write/listen to/view/digest/ and construct music today. not necessarily the notes as it fits on the scale or key signature, but more to the emotional connection behind it. the stories of music i had the pleasure of telling, especially my senior year, were simply life changing and i owe all of that to Miss Matthews. She will go down as one of the best musicians and directors I have had the pleasure of knowing, I can only wish her the absolute best in the future, and I hope that our paths will cross over again soon.
