Blaine & Anoka

The Anoka-Hennepin school district has a great music program. Ed Schaefle is the orchestra director at Blaine High School, and Mike Halstenson directs Anoka High School's orchestra. This weekend, I'm performing as a soloist with the Northern Symphony Orchestra - for which Ed serves as concertmaster and Mike as conductor. I visited both schools over the past two days to promote the concert, spark interest in practicing, and generate discussion using the question... "What's the point of music?"

Feel free to put in your two cents :)
