- You
should bring the following items with you to the registration
desk. Forms
are available on the website. Please have all forms filled
out and ready to present upon arrival.
- MENC
card
- 4-year
Repertoire Sheet (list selections for 2006, 2007,
2008 and this year. If your band did not attend any
of those years, indicate so on the form).
- Repertoire
Slip/Instrumentation Slip (you need 3 copies of
this)
- Seating
chart
-
3 Sets of scores with measures numbered. If you have
a photocopied score, you must have a letter from the
publisher granting permission to photocopy.
- If
you do not have a current MENC card, take care of getting
your documentation now. If you cannot produce proof of current
membership, your scores will be held until it can be determined
whether or not you are disqualified. The chairman will not
have time to take care of this during festival.
- Instrument
cases should be left on the buses. After your band has performed,
instruments should be returned to the bus; no instruments
should be brought into the auditorium.
- We
will provide the following percussion equipment: bass drum,
4 timpani, concert bells, chimes, xylophone, and gong. You
should bring your own snares, cymbals, mallets, and accessory
percussion. If you are not sure about a piece of equipment,
contact me.
- You
will receive a professional recording (CD) of your stage
performance along with a tape from each judge. Bands receiving
a rating of "Superior" will receive a plaque. All bands
will receive a certificate for participating.
- A concession
stand WILL be available this year. We will
post a list of available items on the website a few days
prior to the event.
- The
area reserved for judges is for judges and their assistants
only.
- Please
impress upon your students the importance of proper behavior
in the auditorium. Also, they should be quiet in the lobby
area. No one will be allowed to enter or leave the auditorium
during performances. Please help your students understand
that when a band finishes playing, the judges are still
talking on the tapes and working to finalize the band's
evaluation; therefore, the auditorium needs to remain quiet
so they can do their work.
- Parents
and other guests are not allowed in the sight reading room.
- No
dressing facilities are provided. The restrooms are not
adequate for changing clothes. Please arrive on campus dressed
to perform.
- We
must keep the festival running on schedule. If you arrive
late, you will be expected to perform at your scheduled
time whether or not you have had an adequate warm-up. If
you arrive after your scheduled performance time, you will
have to wait until the end of the day to perform, pending
approval by the judges. Put some extra travel time in
your schedule to allow for all of those unforeseen problems
that always occur when dealing with middle schoolers!
- Please
refer to the District website for all of the rules pertaining
to festival.
- If
you decide to withdraw from the contest, please notify me
as soon as possible. It is very frustrating to have no-shows
on the day of the event.
- If
you have any questions or concerns, please contact me. With
my schedule during this time of year, you will probably
get the quickest reply if you use my school email (ddavis@ecps.us).
If you call my school, please do not get upset with my secretaries
when they refuse to get me out of class... remember, I'm
trying to get bands prepared for festival too! My phone
numbers and email are on the Contact
Us page of the website.
