She said, “I chose orchestra because I did it in elementary school, and it was really fun.” Playing an instrument is so fun and cool, so if you think you want to, definitely join the orchestra.

Mary Evalyn said, “The people in the class make it fun because they’re fun to be around.” There are so many cool instruments, and you can also try to play the same instrument as your friends.

All the instruments are cool, and they all look fun to play. The cool thing is that you can play whatever instrument you want. So, if you want to play the bass, you can, or the cello. Every instrument is cool, looks fun, and is really cool to play. Mary Evalyn says, “I play bass.” She also said that it is really fun and cool to play because it is big and makes a really fun sound when you play it. The music they play is not just classical; they play lots of different types. For example, “We play classical and other kinds of music,” said Mary Evalyn. Their music is so entertaining and fun to listen to.

They have lots of competitions and concerts, and they’re fun, exciting, and entertaining. There is so much excitement and joy that goes into making and performing these concerts. Their competitions are so competitive, but they practice so much and work so hard. They have a competition. Mary Evalyn said, “We have a UIL competition concert,” and they are so ready and have been practicing for a long time. They’re going to do so well, and they’re so excited. After they have concerts, sometimes they go do something fun. “Sometimes we go to Six Flags,” and “We also had a Chick-fil-A party once,” said Mary Evalyn.

Overall, the AHJS orchestra is a fun and exciting place where students can play instruments, make friends, and enjoy music together. Even though learning an instrument can be challenging, the students practice a lot and improve their skills every day.
