We are so thrilled to announce that our students will perform in-person! Concerts will begin at 7pm in the YHS auditorium. Students will be asked to arrive by 6:30. Please save these dates:

·      Tuesday 12/7 – Band

·      Thursday 12/16 – Snow Date

The auditorium audience capacity is unlimited.  Masks are required.

Each ensemble (Concert Band, Jazz Band, and Wind Ensemble) will perform from the stage area with 6′ distancing. Students who are not performing will be seated in the audience to support their peers.

A reminder of our concert dress requirements as outlined in the Band Handbook. We call it “Concert Black.”

·      Black Dress Shoes

Gentlemen:

·      Black Dress Pants (no black jeans/track pants/sweatpants)

In looking at the month of November, I realized that we will miss 2 rehearsals due to holidays. Ms. Kluga would like to find other days that we could rehearse.  Please respond to the form below. Thanks!

Offered weekly and hosted by our junior and senior band members. Not only are these student leaders helping our underclassmen gain confidence in their musical abilities, they are also building a supportive and welcoming community. Thank you!!
