The NFMS bands are off to a good start this year! We have a record number of students involved in all the groups, which is absolutely wonderful!
Important early dates:
Jazz Band auditions will take place this coming Monday the 24th after school in the band room until 4pm.
Orchestra auditions will take place this coming Wednesday the 26th after school in the band room until 4pm.
Next week, Friday the 28th, the 7th and 8th grade band will be playing along with the high school at the home football game in the evening! We are very excited about this opportunity. Please consider yourself invited to the game to root for the Rebels!
The jazz ensemble has its first gig already scheduled! We will be playing at our first PACK assembly! (This is during school. Details coming soon!)
Students have been learning about technique, embouchure, posture, and breathing in class. We are working on developing rubrics for each important category. Our work is almost completed and can be found here: http://nfmsbandsrubrics.blogspot.com/
Emails with further details will be sent out via infinite campus!
