On Saturday, February 8, 2014, our NBJH Bands students will participate in our annual Solo & Ensemble Festival. The Festival runs from 8:30am to 12:30pm.
Students have spent the winter months preparing both solo pieces and ensemble literature for performance at this yearly event. They present their solo or ensemble for a judge, and receive a mini-clinic on how to improve their performance.
This year, our judges are Mr. Eric Bachmann, band director at Emerson Middle School in Niles, and Mr. Keith Ozsvath, band director at Rotolo Middle School in Batavia. Both these fine educators have a wealth of experience working with junior high band students, and we are so glad they have graciously agreed to spend their Saturday morning with our students!
Good luck to all this year's participants!
