Another wonderfully successful concert tonight. Special congratulations to our rhythm section, and soloist award winners, as well as our two scholarship winners for the Lasalle Summer Jazz Camp! Our next gig is this Thursday March 6th in Harrisburg. We will depart from Archbishop Carol at 8:30am so please be sure to be on the bus by then. Again parents are welcome to ride with us. Lunch WILL be provided however students will special dietary needs may want to bring a brown bag just in case. ***Students with any kind of food allergy severe enough to need an Epi-pen please be sure to bring one with you. You may give it to me to hold on to or keep it with you but please be sure to bring it.***
We are still missing the registration fees for Jazz Band from 8 people. Please double check your records and make sure that you submitted your $25 fee for Jazz Band (this is a separate registration from honor band!)
Please be sure to have your students look over "Bye Bye Blackbird" and "Cold Duck Time" These two tunes are listed on the blog with recordings. We will be rotating them into our set for the next competition. The kids did a wonderful job representing their schools and the diocese tonight. Thanks to all of you parents for helping transport them to and from all of these shows and rehearsals. Without you this band would not be able to exist!
