Festival Questions & Sample Schedule

The Wind Ensemble (March 24, 2010) & String Ensemble (March 25, 2010) will be Performing at Tesoro HS.

What is Festival?

Festival is a competition-type concert. The groups will perform 3 traditional band or orchestra songs for 3 judges. These judges give a rating and make comments on what the group is doing well and what the group needs to improve on. Then the group goes into a Sight Reading Room and works with another judge on a new song. The new song is about the level of a 6th grade piece. It is a very educational experience!

What do the students need to do to prepare for this concert?

This is a very serious concert and students need to make sure that they practice and know their music in-depth. Those students unable to play their parts will not be going with us.
