Posted on by
  1. 2/25/2020, 7:25pm, NAB 010 (Before band rehearsal)
  2. Voices in hallway, percussion instruments being rolled into room, & doors opening/closing.
  3. Instrument cases opening/closing, students voices, footsteps, & various instruments being played/warming up.
  4. Music stand squeaking, chairs shuffling, sheet music being shuffled, & my clarinet.
  5. The sound level is high because since the room is large and the acoustics are wide/open, the sound of instruments being warmed up plus students talking filled the space completely.  The amount of sound activity was also high because there were many varieties of instruments played on top of each other, which made it hard to focus on individual sounds.  
  6. Clamorous.
  7. Musical instruments being played, music stands squeaking, & shuffling of sheet music.
