"This is a great question. Yes, I can get very nervous when I play. When I get nervous, my hands start shaking. I had so much anxiety about my junior recital in college that I made a lot of mistakes. It took me many years to learn that nervousness or stage fright will always be a part of the way that I perform music, so I know that I have learn music extra well before I am ready to perform." -Br.

"I drove through Holdingford a couple years ago with a monk who grew up there. He made sure to point out all of his favorite landmarks (mostly churches and cemeteries)!" -Br. Jacob Berns Mikey has been to Holdingford at least three times! He was a house leader in the 2017-2018 school year, too. He visited our school to teach students how to write music and practice a song that he wrote for them to perform on their spring concert. You can see pictures from the newspaper of Mikey visiting the school on our bulletin board by the door! |
About the Question BoardThe Question Board is a whiteboard in the music classroom and/or an online form on which students can write any music-related questions they have. They can be questions that are unrelated to what we're doing in class, questions that I student prefers to ask anonymously, or questions for our house leaders. Follow this page to see the intriguing and wide variety of questions that students are asking! Archives
