Hey Eagle and Cougar music students, once you have completed your Virtual Field Trip to visit the San Francisco Symphony, post to the blog these 2 things:
1. your favorite part of the website using at least 2 complete sentences
2. 2 things that you learned about the instruments/orchestra in 2 complete sentences
Don't forget to tell your families about Yo-Yo Ma the world famous cellist. Two additional unique things to remember are: Osmo Vanska is the conductor of the Minnesota Orchestra, and (I'm not making this up) Iccolo Miccolo played the piccolo in the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
