Emma and the bass



Emma began playing the bass this year. She had toyed with the viola last year, but the class just went too slow for her since she had already taken a few years of piano and she soon lost interest. The bass became a new challenge and she has really made great strides with it.

She fell in love with the bass when she saw a girl playing it in the orchestra and in the jazz band last year. Its versatility was a definite plus and now, with Mariah's friend Julie on violin, Becca on viola and Mariah on cello, we have a full ensemble. Imagine it!

This picture was from the Alice C. Harris Intermediate School's winter concert in February. They sounded quite good.
