November 23 Newsletter
Sun, 11/22/2009 - 10:12pm — Roy Young
Solo and Ensemble
This year solo and ensemble is on January 23rd. Because it is early, all events need to be entered into the computer before winter break. We will begin to pick out solo and ensemble pieces on Monday during class. Soloists can also stay after school on Monday for some extra help in picking out their pieces.
Jazz Band Practice
Jazz band will meet after school on Monday from 3-4:00pm to pick out pieces for the Holiday Concert. Please stay if at all possible to read through some new charts. Rehearsals will normally occur on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school.
Pep Band
Pep Band will begin on November 28th. There are 13 performances this year including Boy's Basketball, Girl's Basketball, Hockey, and BGSU Women's Basketball Games. All students are welcome to attend any performances they wish to attend. In order to receive an award for Pep Band, a student must attend 9 performances throughout the season. Sign up sheets will be posted on the band room door for each performance.
Lake Orion Trip
Plans are progressing for our trip to Michigan. By this point students should have signed up for a room, their bus, and a group for bowling. We have decided to include a trip to the University of Michigan for their annual Marching Band Concert in Crisler Arena. This concert will include many of the pieces that were played by the band throughout their season. We are able to get a discount for the group at $9 per person. Students can begin bringing in their money for the concert at their earliest convenience.
