Hi folks,
Please se below for an update on our Concert Band rehearsal schedule for the upcoming 4-day school week, an announcement re: music department swag, and information on our 2024 Winter Concert!
4-Day School Week Rehearsal Expectations
Next week, October 2nd-October 4th, is a 4-day school week. For those who are unfamiliar or have forgotten the routine for these weeks, it's pretty simple: any 4-day school week throughout the year is a Full Concert Band rehearsal week unless otherwise stated. For example, next week there is no class Monday leaving only Wednesday and Friday to rehearse. The expectation is that all students will attend both Wednesday's and Friday's class time. Please arrange your transportation accordingly so that you can be in attendance of both rehearsals.
Art Comp: Band Swag Edition
This year the music department has opted to push for getting band swag in hands by roughly mid-November. Any music student who wishes to submit should let me (Mr. V) know by email so I can expect your submission. All submissions must be submitted no later than October 11th. The voting will take place for 1 week and conclude on October 18th. The winner will be announced in the days thereafter. Preference will be given to the submission with the most votes adhering to the following criteria:
Use of school colours (red, white, and blue)
Use of school animal (hawk)
Relevance to music
Relevance to our program (J. L. Crowe Music Dept.)
Refinement of Art
The winning submission may require modification to suit the screenprinters. As such, the winning student may be required to make edits to the original submission.
Good luck to all our artists!
Save-the-Date: Winter Concert Thursday December 12th
I'm delighted to share that we have secured a date for our 2024 Winter Concert. Students and the community will gather in the Crowe gymnasium the evening of Thursday December 12th to celebrate the season and the efforts of the students. This public performance will be admission by donation and open to the entire Crowe community. We have opted to perform in the gym due to the considerable growth in audience over the last few years and will do our best to make the show as comfortable and sonically spectacular as possible. Looking forward to seeing you there!
