REMINDER: For the Tech Week rehearsals on Monday, January 27 thru Wednesday, January 29, ending times are all tentative. These rehearsals could end way earlier or later than the designated time. You will be fed dinner during each Tech Week evening rehearsal!
On Thursday, January 30, instead of holding a traditional Tech Week rehearsal, all Pit Orchestra members will participate in a performance during the day. I will provide more information on this at the next rehearsal.
2/1 WINTER GUARD CONTEST AT AKINS HS
The Winter Guard will be competing in their first contest this Saturday, February 1 at Akins HS. Their performance will be at 3:04pm!
1/31 SOLO AND ENSEMBLE PREPARATION AND ACCOMPANIST FEES DUE
As a program, we pay the piano accompanist $50 for 2 rehearsals and a performance. In order to streamline this process and keep track of payment, wind players performing a solo will need to make a check of $50 out to “Belton Band Boosters” so that we can pay the accompanists after the performances on the day of the contest. (Percussion students will not need to pay this fee due to not having piano accompaniment with their solos.) Please submit this payment to Mr. Kwaku by Friday, January 31.
2/8 SOLO AND ENSEMBLE SCHEDULE
Please click HERE to view the schedule for the solo and ensemble contest at Temple HS on Saturday, February 8. If there are any concerns with your performance time, please contact Mr. Vaadi at matthew.vaadi@bisd.net.
