Santa Maria School Receives $20,000 in New Band Instruments

Tommie Kunst Junior High School in Santa Maria now has 15 new instruments thanks to a recent grant from the Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation, which was inspired by the popular 1995 movie that starred Richard Dreyfuss.

Overseer good for you

[@ihopenoonefindsthisaccount7687]

I play flute

[@elijahvaldivia3729]

why no Bari saxes in that band

[@WickedWitchOfTheSouth]

Elijah Valdivia At their level that’s really unnecessary to even have. Especially with how much they cost. That’s like giving a beginner flute a piccolo immediately or giving a beginner clarinet a bass or contrasbass. It’s not really needed till they’re in high school and theirs more options for instruments.

[@elijahvaldivia3729]

Contrabass isn't even a elementary instrument

[@WickedWitchOfTheSouth]

Elijah Valdivia That’s what I’m saying. Neither is a bass, or a Bari sax. Elementary instruments are the most common/basic beginner instruments.

[@elijahvaldivia3729]

I'm in elementary and I play Bari

[@WickedWitchOfTheSouth]

Elijah Valdivia Than your school is the only school I’ve ever seen with a Bari sax so early on.
