There are just three weeks left of school until break! Our concerts are next week! We can make it! I have outlined all that is to come until break below. I highly encourage all high school woodwind players to attend the Woodwind Clinic Day hosted at Paint Valley. We have hired absolutely fantastic musicians on every woodwind instrument to offer master classes and the chance to play in small ensembles. Please check out the links to find out more.

High School Solo and Ensemble (1/25)
If you are planning on taking a solo or an ensemble to contest in January, I must know what you are taking, the class, the title, and your accompanist (for solos) before we go on break.
I would highly encourage all of our high school instrumentalists to take an ensemble! If you are looking to take a solo, I request that you be taking private lessons. A list of music that can be taken can be found here at Stanton's and also on the OMEA website.
See you all in class,
NT
