Adams 12 Honor Orchestra 1/23/16

The Julliard-trained guest conductor of today's Adams County Honors Orchestra took it upon herself to pick a piece of music which happened to contain solos in all 4 movements. Solos to be performed by...well...her.  Accompanying her in her solo is the Adams County Honor Orchestra.  Not exactly the best choice of music to showcase the talents of these hard working students, nominated by their teachers to participate, but whatever.
And yes, I'm trying to squeeze out all my sarcasm here so the urge to email the county to complain will disappear.  haha.
They sounded magnificent nonetheless!!   And all after only two days of practicing together--and performing without direction from a conductor!  Well done, kids!
