The final days of school for the 2010-11 School Year are upon us. The students have worked hard and earned the right to relax and have a few months off. A few reminders for all band students should be reviewed though before your check-out completely. First, all band students make sure to take your instrument and lesson book home over the summer. Although I don't expect practice everyday, any little bit will help and it is much harder to practice without an instrument. Next, for those of you that are signed-up for summer lessons please make sure to arrive on time and prepared to play for your scheduled times. Remember that the schedule is posted on the GT Band Website. Finally, all high school band students, including incoming freshmen, are require to attend two extra rehearsals which will be held on August 30 and 31 from 3-4:00 in Graettinger. Please be in the band room by 3:00 with your instrument out and music for Spania ready.
On a final note, it has been another very successful year for our instrumental program and the greatest thanks for that go to our music students. These young people have committed themselves to excellence and it has shown. I for one can't wait to see what will happen next year! Have a wonderful summer everyone and feel free to email me to keep me posted on your summer happenings. Also, you can come visit me at the Roof Garden in Arnold's Park at any Rock the Roof this summer where I will be mixing.
Sincerely,
Mr. Pedersen
