Student Success: Kevin

“The Wooden Floor has taught me that as long as you keep working for something, it is not as hard as it seems."

“The Wooden Floor has taught me that as long as you keep working for something, it is not as hard as it seems. Slowly but surely you’ll get there. Most of what you learn in Annual Concert rehearsal is timing and trust. There are moments when you carry someone and they have to trust you and they have to believe in you. You have to trust everyone is going to do their job. As for timing – you have to learn what your cue is, to pay attention, and be aware of others without making much noise.”
