I’m Still First Chair.
Today we got the results of challenges. I didn’t want to tie with Taylor. I REALLY didn’t want to tie. But we did. Both of us were sad, we didn’t want to play scales in front of everybody. We had to play our Ab scale. Taylor had to go first and when he started he hit an F before hitting the Bb. He then played the rest just fine. I started out on a Bb, and then played it correctly.
In jazz band we played “Into the Land of Make Believe” it’s a cool song, but I don’t think it fits with the title. It even has a trumpet “solo”, exept all of the first trumpets play it. It’s still pretty cool though. Then I had a private trumpet lesson, and Mr. G. checked my trumpet, the only thing he said as that I’d need to be careful to keep my mouth the same so it would be in tune.
