The Music Evening is May 9th!
Every year, we have really great small ensembles, rock bands, and soloists performing in the music evening. These are music students who are highly enthusiastic and who would like to put together their own performance, outside of music clubs.
If you are interested in performing, please contact Miss Keus (amykeus@nanjing-school.com) by May 28th. Of course, sooner is better).
Happy practicing!
Miss Keus
