Just want to give some more details for Easter Sunday.
If you're interrested, on Easter Sunday at 10:15, there will be a church service upstairs at the same building we meet in for band. You are welcome to attend, and watch as I conduct a choir that morning. Have a wonderful week off, see you on April 10th! ~Harold

Hello everyone! Firstly I want to say good work thus far. Keep it up!
There is an error in the concert list, so I will post an updated one here: Beginner Band Regal March Montego Bay Sawmill Creek Chronicles Intermediate Band Muppet Show Cabo Rico Summer's Rain French Market Buzzard March Rudimental Regiment Romanza (winds only) Drum Duet (percussion only) Senior Band Muppet Show Dragon Flight Pink Panther Spring Fever Just a Closer Walk It is super important that you are practicing everything by now, this will let you get the stamina required to perform in the concert. As a rule I tried to play everything through twice: If I could manage that, then the concert was a breeze. SO... Those of you in 2 bands should be having a solid practice time each day with everything from both bands (and on both instruments in some cases). And finally; these are the notes from last rehearsal! Beginner Band: Practice 122 Go for Excellence! specifically the dotted rhythms (Kjos will be a SUPER useful tool here) also try to practice ahead to trumpet voluntary on page 30 if you can. Inter. Band: Practice good tone production and articulation across all of the music for the concert. Also... DYNAMICS!!!!!!!! Senior Band: Work on accuracy in the rhythms in Just a Closer Walk to the best of your abilities. ~Harold We are in the final weeks so you know what to do by now!
Dress code for the concert is Blue Denim and White (any combination) If you wish to prepare any solos, duets or other groupings we would weave those into the program. These do not need to be on your band instrument it could be another instrument that you play. We would just need to know the details beforehand. Concert List - these are for practice we will finalize the list in April Beginner Band Regal March Manhatten Beach March Sawmill Creek Chronicles Intermediate Band Muppet Show Cabo Rico Summer's Rain French Market Buzzard March Rudimental Regiment Romanza (winds only) Drum Duet (percussion only) Senior Band Muppet Show Dragon Flight Pink Panther Spring Fever Just a Closer Walk |
