Upcoming Music Festivals
As we all begin planning for the month of April, I thought I'd make sure everybody understands the time commitments I'm asking the students to make for the Symphonic Band's upcoming music festivals.
The first performance, which is on Saturday, 4/21, will take place at Milpitas High and will last from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. This performance will be followed by a trip to Great America, which will last until 8:30 PM. You received a detailed itinerary with the permission slip packet. The required uniform for this trip is simply the band polo shirt. Students may follow the dress code for the rest of the outfit. Choose comfortable clothing for the amusement park!
The next music festival, which is on Saturday, 4/28, will take place at Cupertino Middle School, will last from 1:00 - 4:00 PM. I will send home a detailed itinerary and permission slip after the vacation. The required uniform for this festival is the full band uniform, from the black polo down to the shiny black shoes!
It is essential that every student attend these events so that we can show the judges the full strength of our ensemble!
