Auditions will be held for George Street Middle School's 2009-2010 Jazz Band after school in the band room on Monday, September 21.
All students registering in Senior Band this year are eligible to audition for Jazz Band. No prior jazz experience is required but precedence will be given to traditional jazz instruments: saxophone, trumpet, trombone, percussion, keyboard, bass, guitar. Each audition is five minutes long. Please come ready to play a short solo on your instrument and two scales (B-flat major and E-flat major). A sign-up sheet will be posted on the band room door the week of September 14. Students will be notified by phone of their acceptance into Jazz Band.
Please note that there is a $50 additional fee for participating in Jazz Band. All band forms and fees must be received at our Band Registration Night at the school on Wednesday, September 23. Jazz Band rehearsals will be held on Mondays after school, beginning on September 28.
Last year the GSMS Jazz Band won gold at the Fredericton Music Festival — we look forward to another swinging year of jazz at George!
