Middle School BAND Solo/Ensemble

Tipler Middle School is proud to be hosting the annual OASD Middle School Band Solo & Ensemble Night this year! 

Thursday, February 22nd (4-8pm) 

All 8th grade Tipler Band students will be participating in this event along with the other OASD middle school band students. The band students will be performing at scheduled times throughout the evening for judges who will give them a score and critique for their performance. I will send more information home with students and by email as we get closer to the event date. Please look for that information soon.

Middle School CHOIR Solo/Ensemble

WHEN: 
Tuesday, February 27th  (4-7pm)
 
WHERE
Vel Phillips Music Wing (there will be a map)
 
WHY: 
Students will sing for a well-qualified judge who will give them strategies on how to improve their solo singing. 
 
DRESS: 
This is a very casual event, students should dress casual to business casual. An ideal dress would be khakis and a button down or nice pants and a nice shirt. I will leave it up to the parent’s discretion. 

Times will be determined one week in advance.
Once we get a final number of students who are attending from all schools, the teachers will determine a schedule.
Students should show up 5 minutes before their scheduled time and can leave right after they are done.
They do NOT need to be there from 4-7pm.
