The Band

The original design for the rubber band car was a three wheeled car powered by the back axle. My group decided to change the car into a more unique car and ended up with a wind powered car with a water bottle as the base of the car. With the water bottle as the base, there are four metal tin lids as the wheels with a straw in the center of the whole to cause less fiction.

vocalists and musicians between the concert band, the concert choir, and the jazz band. The performances feature many different composers. Overall, the concert band sounded really good. For this concert, the director chose songs that would reflect different stages of life. I liked this theme and the song choices just for how the rhythms, tempos, ad dynamics were for each song. I also like how some of the musicians described why the song relates to them before the band performed them. While…
