Today I will be sharing my reflection VSO and masquerade party.
So, Elizabeth came and taught some stuff about Mozart, [where he died, where he lived, and more.] She also played the bassoon, and she played a piece that Mozart made. It was very unique and special.
The day of the masquerade, everyone was dressed fancy. The girls were wearing dresses and the boys were wearing tuxedos. So after all the preparing and all the practice, it was the big day! Parents came, and it started. Oh, opps, I forgot to mention that we made masks. It was very fun, we got to put glitter and feathers on the mask. I got to help clean up. [Sweeping, since they’re was so much glitter on the floor.] Ok, so it started, we started to dance. After we played recorder, and in the end we got to eat cake! Chocolate and Vanilla. So that’s the end. Bye!
It is interesting to me that the first item you mentioned from the lesson on Mozart was his death. I suppose it is very interesting that someone so respected & admired for his genius & his work was not also celebrated at the time of his death. What surprised or impressed you most about his work?
