Family Hullabaloo Concert

Hullabaloo!

        4pm Saturday March 5, 2011

 Wexford Community Presbyterian Church

Come join us for CYM’s first ever Hullabaloo! This will be an event like no other. Here’s the scoop:

*This event will celebrate the joy of music, family, creativity, and plain old fun!

*This is an ensemble event...so, at least two participants should be prepared to perform (no solos). We encourage you to make this a family affair, but friends are welcome too. Parents, this is a great way to let your child know that you are willing to put yourself out there, just like they do when they perform, and it also leaves your kids feeling proud of their mom and/or dad!

*What are you supposed to do? Anything goes! Play a favorite Suzuki piece together, learn a jazz piece, perform your own composition, sing, play the bagpipes, play the kazoo, shake a box of cereal, play your favorite piece from your childhood (wouldn’t a family rendition of the Meow Mix theme song be great?).

*Get everyone involved! Do Grandma and Grandpa have hidden talents ? Does your family have a different instrument at home? Do they play the harmonica, have a killer singing voice, or play the drum set? Can your baby sister or brother shake a box of tic-tacs, beat on a drum, or play some sticks?

*Be creative and show us who you are as a family! Do you have costumes you would like to incorporate? Could you share some of your cultural heritage with us through a performance that’s unique to your family?

*The point of this is not to push yourselves to be super polished. This is an opportunity to have fun, be creative, and enjoy the process of making music as a family unit. There are times for serious practice and quiet audiences, but there are also times to let loose and use music to reflect who YOU are. Come and show us who YOU are!!
