Saxophones at Royal Oak School!

This last week, students in Grade One, Two and Three were lucky to have a visit from Ms. Anderson, a Royal Oak School parent - and a saxophone player!  

She brought both a soprano saxophone and a tenor saxophone to school, and gave our students the chance to hear these instruments with their own ears.  

She played special songs for us (including a tune from Star Wars and the Lion King!), and showed us how the instrument made music.  

She also told us a little bit about how she learned to play, and why she likes to perform with her band.

Here's some of what our students had to say after the presentation:

Soprano Saxophone

Tenor Saxophone

   "You blow in it.  

              Then it makes noise!"

         "They're shiny and loud!"       

"There's lots of buttons.  

      They make the music."

               "She plays really good!"

                        

 "The little one made a high sound, and the big one made a low sound."

  "You can play any song you want on the saxophone - even famous ones."

THANK YOU MS. ANDERSON !
