MS Band – SmartMusic Due this week

Those who install, activate, and use to record their rhythm pattern pass-off will earn a free day Friday in class.  Those who are unable to use SmartMusic to record their  pass-off in advance will need to play in person and then spend the rest of the period installing/activating SmartMusic.
