last week, i went to the orchestra camp at the university of
maryland, called SYMC. i have loyally attended the camp for five
consecutive summers now!
this was the first year that
ella could do the camp, and it was also my last year. so, sadly, this
was our only chance to go together. we got to have orchestra rehearsals
and world drumming class together! plus, ella got me to carry her cello
around...
as always, they had spirit days every day of
the week. i will never be able to top the crazy hair day from my third
summer at SYMC! it attracted so much staring and pointing... i have a
picture of it in this post! i was only 12 years old!
after
the auditions on monday, i found out that i was the concertmaster! it
was an amazing way to end my time at the camp. i was a little nervous
for the concert, since i had a solo in one piece, but it went really
well and i was relieved!
here are some pictures of me and ella at the concert.
and here is a recording of one of the songs we played, which has my solo. it is called celtic roots by soon hee newbold.
