Concert/Dress Rehearsal UPDATE 5/17

Hello Parents,

A couple quick things! I have been lucky enough to be able to reserve the gym for both Monday and Tuesday next week. This means I am able to break the dress rehearsals up to maximize stage time for each group to rehearse. Next week Schedule is as follows! Your student only needs to attend during their posted ensembles times! 

Monday 5/15: Wind Ensemble (Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone, Trumpet, Trombone, Percussion: Joe/Vincent) 3:30-5:30

Monday 5/15: Orchestra (Violin, Viola) 3:30-5:30

Tuesday 5/16: Guitar Ensembles (Guitar, Bass, Percussion: Teagan, Brian, Chris, Kyle) 3:30-5:00

Tuesday 5/16: Percussion Ensemble (Teagan, Brian, Chris, Kyle, Joe, Vincent!) 3:30-5:00

Wednesday 5/17: CONCERT All Ensembles

Call Time/Doors open: 6:00pm

Concert Runs: 6:30pm-7:30pm

Dress Code: Dress down (Rock inspired, favorite Band T shirt, Jeans etc) Please make sure everything is Catholic school appropriate! It should be something you would wear on a 3D day. Fun hats/socks/glasses are welcome! 

Thanks for your continued support! See you all WEDNESDAY night!

Makeups, Dress Rehearsal, and more!

Hello Parents! 

Happy MAY! We are just 17 days away from our Spring Band Concert and your students have been doing a wonderful job preparing for our upcoming concert. Please remember to encourage daily practice to help them be ready for this very fun evening! Our Spring Band Concert will be held from 6:30-7:30. Please make note of this start time is a bit earlier than years past. Unfortunately ABW has their spring show the same night starting at 7:30 and many of our families have students in both so I moved our start time up by 30min. 

Event: Spring Band Concert

Date: May 17th, 2017

Time: 6:30pm - 7:30pm 

MAKEUPS: I would like to make up the Wind Ensemble lessons that were missed in March by running a 1 hour rehearsal on TUESDAY May 9th from 3:15-4:15. This is not a mandatory rehearsal however I hope that all our students are able to attend so that we can have a full hour to rehearse as a group to better prepare for the dress rehearsal. Beginner Guitar will have their makeup on TUESDAY May 16th from 3:15 - 3:45 and Advanced Guitar will have their makeup TUESDAY May 16th from 3:45 - 5:00

Dress Rehearsal: Will be Monday May 15th from 3:30-5:30 for ALL instrumentalist. This will give us time to work with each ensemble on stage and run our show. Mr. Gooding will work with our Orchestra Students while I rehearse the Winds/Guitars. Please plan to pick your students up in the back parking lot by 5:30pm! 

Please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you all May 17th in the Nativity Community Center at 7:30!

UPDATED EMAIL!!! SENT!!!

Quick correction to my previous email. The Wind Ensemble Makeup was supposed to be TUESDAY May 9th (not May 8th like was in my previous email) however that is Nativity's MAY procession. So instead it will have to be WEDNESDAY May 10th from 3:15-4:15 I am sorry for this confusion and Thank you to those of you who brought it to my attention!
