The enclosed picture is John Doan’s jug band class. The class writes both music and lyrics – a silly chorus – which they performed in the hall for me is enclosed below.
Road kill, oh road kill, is what we like to eat
‘Specially if it is seasoned for better than a week
Possum or squirrel, there’s nothing better in the world
As long as you get it off the street
The instruments being played are: dobro, dulcimer, mandolin, and bass. The goal of our music program is to promote both exposure as well as mastery. Our students hear a wide variety of music from opera to spirituals, bluegrass to jazz, and classic to folk music. They may elect to play a variety of instruments or specialize in a particular area. FYI ... we have a 6:1, student to piano ratio at NCS. Our piano teacher Don Rand – who has been at school for 50 years – has 30 individual students.
