The State Music Festival will be held in Great Falls this year. This awesome festival presents a great opportunity for musicians to learn. They will perform for adjudication and get to hear others perform. The times listed are for the beginning of the cluster they perform in. They are to remain in that room for the entire hour of performances, and clinic(s) by the adjudicator. All the students will be expected to be on time (or early), dressed appropriately, with all materials needed. Good behavior is required while at the Festival as anywhere else with the school group. Even when not performing, students may not wear grubby clothes, this is a special event and everyone should make an effort to look their best (dress up!). All students who are participating must be on the bus, unless parents make other arrangements with the teachers. During the day we can be reached for an emergency at my cell, 406-468-5483. The school will provide meals for the students and chaperones on this trip if the timing works that way. Students should bring some money along for extras.
Included with this letter is a form we need in order for a student to go with us on this trip. Please do so today, so there is one less thing to do when we leave for the festival.
Here is the full Friday schedule.
Here is the full Saturday schedule.
The bus will load at 6:20 am and leave Cascade asap. Be here on time! Each student must make sure the measures are numbered in the music given to the adjudicator, and that no photo-copied music is given to them. .
