Additional Notes for Parents/Students
Happy New Year! Welcome back from winter break, and I hope it was a restful and relaxing time for your families. We’re hitting the ground running with ensembles, auditions, and music-making right off the bat!
Audition Info and details about audition requirements for the ensemble placement auditions can be found at this link (This has also been posted to Slack): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dY0zpKa9VPRaqcKJLuvIuwkfwcxVU8IUrNxfvUX-QsY/edit?usp=sharing
All wind, percussion, strings, and brass students will audition on January 9th or 11th (this audition is graded as part of the “Participation” grade and is automatically a pass in the grade book as long as the student takes part). This audition is for accurate chair placements for ensembles and to help students get more practice preparing for auditions for extracurricular opportunities!
Piano students have already begun their assigned pieces with our Piano instructor, but any piano students interested in playing with the orchestra or the Pit Musical Orchestra should audition!
