Jazz Lab Band is offered for Junior High (7&8) students who have had at least one year prior experience on a band instrument. This is an extra-curricular band that meets once a week after to school, working on improv and jazz style. All instruments are welcome. Students will have the oppurtunity to perform a spring concert.
We will once again be having an after school band that will perform two tunes at the April 29 Junior High Band Concert. With the amount of time we have to prepare, I would like to make sure students are committed to the group and will attend all after
school rehearsals. Like last year, rehearsals are only on Thursday’s and rides need to be there for pickup at 4pm.
Rehearsal Schedule:
Thursday March 25, 2:50pm-4:00pm
Thursday April 1, NO REHEARSAL
Thursday April 8, 2:50pm-4:00pm
Thursday April 15, 2:50pm-4:00pm
Thursday April 22, 2:50pm-4:00pm
Thursday April 29, 2:50pm-3:30pm CONCERT THAT EVENING AT 7PM IN THE PIT.
All rehearsals are in the JH Band Room. Be prompt in picking students up from rehearsal or finding them rides as they are not to be in the building after rehearsal.
