Congratulations to new Symphonic Band members
Auditions for Symphonic Band went well this week. Clarinets will continue next week.
Great first week
Our first week of lessons were great. I was so happy to meet new students and become acquainted again with former ones. Don’t forget to practice.
New Concert Band music
We are starting Concert Band today. They is new music and a fresh start to a new year playing in band. Click here for a great recording. Great Gate of Kiev.
Lessons are starting
Lessons begin this week so don’t forget your instruments. In lessons, I will be teaching all of the flutes and clarinet and a few alto saxophones. Full Band should be fun to here on Tuesday. The Concert Band will be in the Cafeteria. I look forward to working with all of my students.
Band starting
Activity Block should be starting on Thursday. We’ll have a full band meeting with both the Concert Band and Symphonic Band. No instruments will be needed for that rehearsal. However, when you get your small group lesson assignments, we will start playing immediately. Look out for these assignments. How you play in the first lesson will determine which band you will be in, so start practicing. Please bring in some music that you are comfortable with. See you soon.
Get ready
I hope you’re first week of school went well. Lessons and Band are starting soon, so get your instruments ready.
