This is why is important to keep music in the schools. Kids always play from their souls; and it's a beautiful thing to see!

[@galaxylucia1898]

The best thing about this is that they were having so much FUN!!! They knew the music, they had the choreography down, so it was time to flex their skills!!! I hope these kids go far in life whatever they pursue beyond music and that their friendships last. ❤
