Centerburg Music Department

Congratulations to the Marching Band... Congrats for a great first performance!  Please be sure to review your UDB and go over both the music and drill for part 3 as we will be learning it this Wednesday evening! *  Just a reminder about attendance ... We're beginning to get last minute surprises about band members not being able to be at some Wednesday evening rehearsals.  PLEASE..... unless you have an approved " school-sanctioned " athletic competition, do not miss Wednesday evening band practices.  This is the only time we introduce and learn new material.  If you are absent it throws everyone off when you return and don't know what was taught!  All fall athletic schedules were due in the band office by the 1st day of band camp on July 21st .   That way we are able to plan our rehearsals efficiently. Thanks for your cooperation!!  😀

  More Marching Band Reminders... #1. This week begins our Fall Practice Schedule .  Practices are:  Wednesdays from 6:00 - 9:00 PM and Thursdays from 3:15 - 5:00 PM #2. Fridays there is band practice from 3:15-4:30 PM followed by trailer loading, band dinner, and suiting-up for the performances. #3  Proper Marching Band Practice attire :  Shorts, t shirts and sneakers.  No long pants, boots, crocs, etc...  All our teams change and dress appropriately for their practices...and we're no different. #4 Just a reminder that all students registered for the HS Band class and required to participate in marching band.. .unless they have received special permission from the administration due to an illness or major scheduling conflict.  Marching band is part of the band curriculum and is not an extra-curricular activity. #5 1st Home game against Utica this Friday...Polos and khakis!!! PLEASE NOTE:   As per our recent agreement with the school adminis...

  Welcome back everyone! Just a reminder that we have marching band practice (full Ensemble) this coming Wednesday and Thursday evening from 6-8 PM .  Attendance is mandatory.  All brass and woodwind players will need to be sure they have a LYRE for their instrument for this Thursday as we will be doing the pre-game and you'll need your flip folder attached to your instrument.    Lyres are available at most music stores...BUT are peculiar to the make and model of the instrument.  They ARE NOT a one-size-fits-all thingy! Next week we begin our Wednesday evening and Thursday afternoon band practices.  There will most likely also be some sectional rehearsals as needed, but we will reveal those to you once we can meet as a band staff to determine the times. NOTE:   "IF" you are a fall athlete then, as usual and as it has been done for 25 years, you should be willing to miss one after school athletic practice per week to attend Thursday afternoon ba...
