This week we check in with NCB bassoon Heather McCowen to hear about her experience with socially distanced rehearsals, her pandemic routine, and how she feels about standing while playing the bassoon. Setting up for safe music making took the thought, creativity, and action of many members of the planning committee. Read about how we prepared our rehearsal venues for social distanced rehearsals and the many rolls of painters tape used to make this happen.

Week two of NCB, COVID Edition 3.0 was a smashing success! The night began with members of the brass section rehearsing Gustav Holst's "Moorside March" (arranged by our friend Jeffrey de Seriere), followed by a wind ensemble rehearsal of Arthur Bird's Suite in D.
"Being a music educator during the pandemic has caused me to rethink the role I play in my students’ lives. This past year, so many of my students have struggled to just get through the school day. I’ve seen first-hand how music class has helped them persevere." USA TODAY #music #musiceducation #musiceducator #musicclass
