Nerve Endings Firing Away

One time at band camp...

Our son is going to be a band geek 🎺 We visited his new middle school today to try out for the fine arts elective. He has to choose between orchestra and band. Orchestra had instruments like cello, viola, bass, violin, etc. so mostly string and band had trombone, clarinet, trumpet, etc. so mostly wind. He chose band as his elective and seemed to prefer trombone.

A couple of boys who were trombone players seemed very excited. One of them was a former orchestra person and switched to band because he said things can get quite competitive out there. I’m sure because the girl in the orchestra room who had also got very excited when my son said he preferred bass if he opted for orchestra, is going to be crushed.
