Salute Mr. Brodie, and play along!

Our much-loved Mr. Jonathan Brodie is finishing his last year of teaching strings in the Whitefish Bay schools, and would enjoy having old friends and their instruments join in playing "Les Buffons" or at least being there in his last official performances with the fourth grade strings at  Cumberland elementary school.  Cathy Kolb, Christine Ammin  and Kari Gunderson will be there to help you tune and give last-minute guidance. 

We'll be part of a "FUTURE - PAST - PRESENT" set which will begin the performance with wfb Suzuki little ones (2011 summer class spin-off by Mr. Brodie)  and then alumni of all ages playing Les Buffons and then 4th-graders playing.  We'll have some music there if you need it.  Please let Kari Gunderson at kari.gunderson@hotmail.com know if you can come, so she can choreograph this.


We'll also compile tributes to Mr. Brodie.  Send Kari a few words to read aloud or add to his scrapbook!
