Good Evening Band Family!

Attached you will find the latest edition of the Band Bulletin. Open the attachment to see what this week has in store.

Hello all,

Below is the link for students to register for the 2023 GMEA Solo and Ensemble festival. At this festival students are able to have an immense amount of choice to perform solos, duets, or ensembles pieces for qualified judges. Many times in the band world our students are not permitted to have much choice in what they play or the type of ensembles they are to be a part of, but solo and ensemble provides our students the opportunity to do just that. Students could write their own pieces of music and perform, or put together that 'trash can' ensemble they have always wanted to be a part of. This is a win, win, win situation that we would LOVE for ALL of our students to be a part of. We will be having a SOLO AND ENSEMBLE concert at the end of the year where each of our students will be able to perform their acts in concert for our community! The cost for each act is $12. This means that if a student performs in a duet it is $6/each, a trio $4/each, etc. Students can perform in multiple acts and will be able to perform in as much as they would like. The event will take place on Saturday, April 22nd, and will be complete by 2pm.

Deadline to register is NEXT Monday, February 6th, at 5:00pm. Sign up here: https://form.jotform.com/Treasurer_Band/spring-2023-solo-and-ensemble

Let me know if you have questions!

Best,

DMS
