Super Newhart Music Panthers

Newhart has 3 very talented & hard-working students representing us at the All Southern California Honor Orchestra program. After a thorough audition process, we would like to congratulate Isabella X. (6th grade), Sophia B. (8th grade) and Caiden L. (8th grade) for being selected to participate!

 

Got a Metronome & a Tuner?

We use these on a regular basis in all music classes. TempoLite (free app) and tuner.ninja/old (website) work great for our class.
