Micah's Spring Jazz Band Concert

Micah performed in his Spring Jazz Band Concert this past week.  

It is a pretty good band, although we still can't hear those guitars very well over all the horns.  

We still know he is doing a good job.  

Micah says, "I'm the rhythm section.  We're not supposed to be loud, we're supposed to be background."

Well, someday he should crank up that amp and show everyone!

It's fun to see little bits of when Micah jams out to the music.  Here is a video of part of one of his songs.  Keep an eye out for the jammin' sessions.

Micah Makes Concert Choir!

It has been one awesome week for Micah.  Not only did he just win a $100 gift certificate for his jazz guitar entry, but then he found out he made it into the Junior High Concert Choir for next year!  

Micah had auditioned last week for the concert choir, which is made up of mostly 9th grade boys and girls.  As a pretty young 7th grader whose voice hadn't changed yet, the odds were against him, as the teacher said that "preference was given to 9th graders".  

But, he auditioned anyway, and he made it!  What an awesome kid!  

We found out today from his choir teacher that Micah not only did well auditioning, but he got a perfect score at auditions in everything.  He had to sing a solo, do a sight reading exercise, and theory, and he got 100% on everything!  So way to go Micah!  We look forward to next year when we get to see you sing with the best of the best!
