Brass and Woodwind MUSIC REPORT Saltus Junior School 1976-77 This year the children have been very busy with the many musical activities the school provides. At Christmas the School choir combined forces with Mr. Stones and his drama group in a very successful performance of the pop opera Smike . We were very grateful for the valuable assistance of Mr. Meredith (guitar) and Michale Bishop (percussion). Their playing added greatly to the musical accompaniment. Towards the end of the Eastern term, the choir, which was on this occasion accompanied by Jean Motyer, and various instrumental- ists gave a concert to raise money for The Committee of Twenty Five for Handicapped Children. Mr. Stones provided some excellent choral speaking. We were very pleased with the result — over six hundred dollars! We used St. John ' s Church for this concert, and, once more, I feel that I must extend my thanks to the clergy and especially to Canon Wheatley for all the wonderful support they give us through- out the year. St. John ' s has become a musical focal point on the island. It has a very fine organ and the acoustics are excellent. The children enjoy singing there and the boys who sat The Royal Schools of Music exams there must have felt more comfortable in familiar surroundings. Exam results have been good and I ' m very pleased with the efforts of the vast majority of the boys who learn a musical instru- ment. However, I will say again, as I say every year, that, if a child cannot practice half an hour each night on a regular basis then it ' s a complete waste of time and money. I do all I can to encourage the worker but there is nothing I can do for the child who does not have the self discipline or the powers of organisation to work on his own for thirty minutes each evening. There is no way to ' sweeten the pill ' . It is simply a matter of hard work and, as one progresses, even harder work. We are very fortunate to have had the specialist skills of many fine teachers to help in our instrumental programme and this year have enjoyed the new experience of a complete string quartet wandering around two lunch-times each week — usually munching hot dogs! I refer of course to The Heller String Quartet. They have been a great help in so many ways and we do hope they stay as long as possible. Finally I would like to thank my long-suffering colleagues in the junior school who show a great deal of patience and tolerance as their rooms are invaded daily by dozens of instrumentalists with un- wieldy cases of different shapes and sizes. I ' m sure Mrs. Organ Morgan in Dylan Thomas ' s Under Milk Wood would have s m- pathised with them as she expressed the sentiment I am a martyr to music! .... marjorie Pettit
