Dear Mr. Boyer and Members of the Roosevelt Middle School Band:
I came across your band website where I saw your performance of “Junkyard Jam” this year. Thanks so much for selecting my music and preparing it for performance!
I was very impressed with the excellent sound of the entire band–bravo! I also liked the interesting and complete percussion set-up and the spirited tempo you chose without losing control–great job! Can you thank Mr. Boyer for being such a great teacher? And congratulations on your achievements so far!
