Section testing will be the first week of class. I will determine who will be where based on voice, confidence, audition results, etc.
*=Section Leader for this ensemble.

Spring Tour This year will be in Anaheim. If you make this ensemble you are required to go and perform. Prepare to fundraise and pay your own way. :) We have fundraisers lined up every other week through out the fall semester.

As members of the music department there are things that you need to remember.

     1. Should you not perform at a required performance (this class has several throughout the year) you will fail the class for the semester
     2. With a doctors note you will be allowed to make up your grade by writing a 2500 word essay (APA format) on a subject of the department's choosing, attending a local college / university / professional performance of the departments choosing, and connecting the two parts together. You have one week to get that finished.
     3. Without a doctors note you will be allowed ( as required by Ed Code) to make up your grade. You will be writing a 5000 word essay (APA format) on a subject of the department's choosing, attending a local college / university / professional performance of the departments choosing, get a program for the performance, get the conductor to sign that program, interview three players/singers (with a signature on the program), connecting all the parts together. You have one week to get that finished. OR Sing/play your parts for the show in front of the department (at a time scheduled by you and accepted by the department) for all of your parts in the performance that  you did not attend.

There is no way to make up a performance. But, we are required to allow you to make up your grade for missing a required performance.
