Tenino Solo/Ensemble Contest Info
Feb. 4, 2012
Rochester Middle School
Solo and Ensemble Contest is an opportunity for students to prepare a piece of literature for performance for a specialist in their instrument area. Performing a solo or in a small group exponentially aids in the musical development of your student.
The SWWMEA regional solo/ensemble contest is this Saturday February 4th at Rochester Middle School. Students will be put into a performance time slot from 8am-4pm on this day.
Students performing at SOLO the cost is $10.00, Students performing an ENSEMBLE the cost is $15.00 (whole group combined) this must be paid to the Office (Ms. Blair at the High School or Ms. Landers at the Middle School) by January 6th (and receipt turned into Mr. Bowerly).
Schedules will not be released until two weeks before the event. Your student will perform between 8am and 4pm. You should show up to Rochester Middle School AT LEAST 30 minutes before your performance time. Warm up in one of the warm up rooms, arrive at your performance room 10 minutes early, and be ready to perform during your time slot. Mr. Bowerly may not be there before you perform as he will be running around trying to get to everyone’s performances.
Students should be dress appropriately for their performance. Concert attire is the best option, but dressing formally or nice is also acceptable.
Once again thank you for supporting your child and their adventure in music education!

If you are watching the Bowl games on TV with your dad (or mom) make sure to listen to the marching bands play during the game! Sometimes the bowl even shows portions of the halftime show before they cut to commercial break or commentary.
Lots of good music to be heard!!!

Break
Make sure you get out your horn and practice over break. Not playing an instrument for two weeks will cause your embouchure to get out of shape (much like not working out and what that does to your body). Coming back after break (HS) has a lot of Basketball games (2 hrs of playing) and (MS) is getting ready for solo ensemble and massed band! DONT GET OUT OF SHAPE OVER BREAK!!!
