NHS Band Schedule 2018-2019

 

Fill out the NHS Band Uniform Info and Agreement and turn it in by August 16th.

Solo and Ensemble schedules are published (below). Included in our latest email from MSBOA are these reminders:
 
Electronically Sourced Music:  free or paid online music is acceptable. The room chairman is charged with checking for the URL of the online source, to ensure that the music is not simply a photocopy of a print publication. In the case of music printed from CD, the purchased CD must be at the performance, along with a printout for the judge.  Original compositions and arrangements  are acceptable with a representative score.   
 
 
Most common reasons for NR (No Rating):
 
  • not long enough: minimum 2 minutes for high school
  • aligned score showing all parts.  Separate duet parts are not acceptable as a score.
  • accompaniments in the score not played (watch for SD music with a BD part) or rests in your part -- probably for piano
  • ensembles missing a part or doubling a part.

This is a list of people who have accompanied NHS students. You are responsible for arranging and paying for your own accompaniment. If your piece has a piano part, you must have it played to receive a rating. If you have a different accompanist who would like to be added to this list, please let Mrs. Hepp know.
