A matter of the heart…..

Saturday night, Braly stadium was filled with bands and fans of band. We all partook in an event that can only be described as “needed”. I hope you find a recording to listen to as it’s worth your time to watch and listen. Thank you for a wonderful performance, thank you for a wonderful season, and thank you for your membership in the muscle shoals band program. YWNWA

We never stop going. This week starts the transition to a new environment for us all. Concert season has begun and there is music to be learned.

Notes of interest:

1)Monday we will be split into two groups. Wind Ensemble will rehearse on stage and Symphonic band will rehearse in the band room. Aux. who do not play an instrument will be in the auditorium red seats using the time to study and or work equipment.

2) Percussion ensemble auditions are Monday after school at 3:30. Only new students need audition. We will have a brief meeting prior to 4th block starting.

3) There was a winterguard interest meeting last week and audition date will be posted soon. Never too late to begin practicing for that. We are excited both winterguard and percussion have performance/competition opportunities this season.

4) There will not be a school veterans day program this year. The wind ensmble will have a recording session for a special school project Thursday night November 5th from 5:30-7:30. Please put that on your calendar if you are in the wind ensemble.

5) Still football games left. We have a pep band trip Friday to Sparkman HS as well as a 1st round playoff away game at Mountain Brook.

6) If you still have not paid your band fees, please take care of that as soon as you possibly can. Thank you.

7) If you checked out from the game, please bring your uniform back immediately. We do not need those floating around not at the band room. Please remember to bring those back promtly Monday.

8) We have a band booster drive one fundraiser that we need your help with. It is easy to do and we will be getting you EXACT information for that soon. Please be watching the booster page and what you can do to help. It is all online so you can easily of your home.

9) All state auditions; Students we have heard very little practice this year due to no private instructors. I hope you get on that starting this week if you haven’t. You cannot procrastinate and expect to do well. Let’s get on this ASAP.

10) Christmas Program: We want to do an in person Christmas concert. We are getting that process together along with dates and will let you know. Most likely two shows back to back to have safe spacing. Watch for that information coming soon.
