We are so proud to have so many students involved in Jazz MPA, Auxiliary MPA, and Solo & Ensemble MPA. The last time Palmetto Ridge brought two Jazz Bands to District Jazz MPA was in 2008. We also want to point out that the students who performed a solo or ensemble for band or a solo for auxiliary, all worked on their performances with very little coaching from directors and staff. Solo & Ensemble provides our students with the opportunity to work independently and show the knowledge and skills they’ve learned in class. We’re extremely proud of all of our students who had the work ethic and courage (because it takes a lot to perform as a soloist and in a small ensemble in public) to perform this past weekend. Congratulations everyone!
