Beginning Band Info
With our Fall Concert coming up in two weeks (Thursday, October 25th!), I wanted to share some FAQ’s about the concert. I went over most of these points in class with students over the past few days.
TUBA and HORN students-- You will need to bring your tuba/horn from HOME for this concert. The classroom set of tubas/horns are too small for our beginner band students to use! Thank you!

REPORT TIME: Beginners – 6:00pm.
The concert will conclude just after 7:10, and we will need some great helpers to stay and help clean up. Otherwise, students are dismissed after Symphonic Band performs. All students must stay for the entirety of the concert!
What are we wearing for the concert?
Beginning band members will be wearing their hunter green Milwee Band T-Shirt, tucked into a pair of black dress pants, black shoes, and black socks with a black belt. Please wear closed toe shoes, I recommend black flats for female band members.
