Sixth and seventh grade band students performed for the first time this school year on Wednesday. Many of the sixth graders just started playing their instruments in September, and they already are playing and improvising over standards like "Afro Blue" and "Second Line!"

Thank you to Harlem Stage and Soul Science for engaging WHEELS middle school band students in an inspiring, interactive hip hop concert today!

On Friday 8th-12th grade WHEELS band students performed at the Lehman College Latin Music and Jazz Festival. They received excellent feedback from Jim Mair and got to participate in workshops with Aldo Mazza and Wally Barrett!

Thank you to Matt Davis and his trio for performing for one of our 6th grade music classes! They played a beautiful original tune and the whole class got to jam with them on "Sonnymoon for Two!"

We're very excited to have Ms. Webster leading WHEELS' first chorus! Chorus is open to all middle grades students and meets every Monday after school.
