Great show at Seattle Center’s Winterfest!
Posted by Todd Schiele in Performances

Quick kudos from Seattle Center follow below.  We’ll be posting pictures of this very successful event this week, but here’s some feedback from Dominick at the Seattle Center.  Great show everyone!  Congratulations to Morgan M and Taylor W for their first kilted performances, both within about 6 months of joining the band!!  You’ve both put in a TON of practice and hard work to join the band on stage so quickly.  Also, great job to Amber S who has only been taking lessons about three or four months, but played “lead stroke” for the drum pad presentation very professionally!  Great job to several of our newest drummers for their first performances:  Celestina, Robbie, and Steven!

Subject: Thank you for the Winterfest Performance
Dear Dianne,          

Please extend a warm and sincere thanks for your group’s outstanding performance.  The audience really enjoyed the music, dance performance, and education in Scottish Pipe, Drum and Uniform. The processional entrance is very impressive and moving.

Your group’s participation did much to promote the mission of Seattle Center’s Winterfest in celebration of human spirit and community.

Please keep me informed of future performances.

Again thank you, wishing you a Very Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and New Year.

Sincerely,

Dominick A. Lucia
