Hello SM North band family-

 

We’re pleased to announce that we have confirmed a live-streaming/virtual concert on Monday, February 1st, 2021!  The current fall semester classes of blocks 1, 2 and 7 will perform the three songs we’ve been working in class. The two jazz bands will play two or three songs we’ve been working in class. The percussion ensemble will play one song.

 

The rehearsals and performance will not be tied to student grades, this is an optional opportunity for everyone. Having said that, we don’t know what the future holds and this could be our one opportunity to play together this year (maybe we can schedule a May concert season).  Having said that, we need commitments to know who will definitely attend the rehearsals and concerts. Please use the link below to indicate what you can commit to, so we can prepare for precise numbers of students, distancing/mitigation factors, and instrumentation.

 

As always, we will prioritize safety first.  We’re happy we can all get together to make music again!
