Important Information
Chamber Winds is going to the UW Band Festival on Tuesday - We were un-waitlisted! Boys and Girls Basketball Teams are in the Playoffs. Upcoming Concert on February
UW Band Festival 27th - Symphonic Band, Chamber Chamber Winds was moved off the waiting list for Winds, Jazz 1 and Jazz 2 this festival last Friday. I got a bus for us, sent out email about the trip and we are working on collecting the paperwork that we need (Permission slip from every student) It is a really great festival and so I jumped at the chance even though it is last minute. We will perform “Give Us This Day” and then receive an onstage clinic. Because it is a late notice trip we will not be spending the whole day there as we typically do. Please see the emails for all of the details. Savannah Trip Parent Meeting - February 20th We are having a meeting to go over details about this trip. It is at 7:00 in the Band Room. Jazz Ensemble 1 folks need to have one parental representative from the family there, please. Basketball Playoffs Both girls and boys teams are in the playoffs and so there will be a few more games for the pep band to play at. These are always exciting time and if they are successful they will be able to go on to the state competition in Tacoma which happens March 6-8. The tricky thing about playsoff is that we don’t know when they will be playing for sure because it changes based on whether they win or lose. I will do my best to outline it for you and let you know which games we will be playing at. Boys play on Tuesday (we are playing this game). if they win, they play on on Friday at Jackson (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 21st at 8:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on the 21st at 6:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on Thursday (we can’t play this game) if they lose a second time, they are out... if they win, they play on the 18th (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 21st at 6:00 (we WILL play this game)
Girls play on Wednesday (we WILL play this game). I can’t make it but Mr. Schwab will help the band. if they win, they play on on Saturday at Lynnwood (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 22nd at 8:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on the 22nd at 6:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on Saturday (we can’t play this game) if they lose a second time, they are out... if they win, they play on the 19th (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 22nd at 6:00 (we WILL play this game) I’m attaching the brackets to this newsletter so you can follow along yourself. Disneyland Trip Payment The next Disney payment is due on Feburary 28th. Free Piano Contact Barb Oakley at
[email protected]. “I have a friend who has a neighbor that is giving away a free piano. This is an 80 year old upright Kimball piano. It is solid oak and has a dark brown stain. It has a good sound and a nice touch. If you or someone you know would like this piano, please get in touch with me asap.” Free Concert at Cornish Cornish Music Series extends an offer of 10 free student tickets per school to: Marty Ehrlich and the Cornish Contemporary Big Band Thursday, February 13 at 8pm PONCHO Concert Hall, 710 E Roy St, Seattle “It would be hard to conceive of a player who sounds less like anyone else and more like he’s speaking directly through his horn than Marty Ehrlich.” - James Hale, DownBeat Stalwart NYC saxophonist and clarinetist Marty Ehrlich leads the Cornish Contemporary Big Band in a concert of his compositions. For tickets and more information: http://www.cornish.edu/musicseries/detail/marty_ehrlich_and_the_ cornish_contemporary_big_band Please contact me to obtain your tickets!
[email protected] We hope to see you there, Megan Calendar Change Because of our Disneyland trip we are not able to do the concert on April 3rd as originally planner. I have moved the concert to April 1st. For real. We will play things that we are taking to California. This will include all concert band students, not just those who are going on the trip - at least that is my plan at this time. If it changes, I will let you know. 2014 College Planning Night – Feb. 13 All District sophomore and junior families are invited to attend the 2014 College Planning Night at Meadowdale High School. It will be Thursday, February 13 from 7 to 9 p.m. starting in the Great Hall.

There will then be three breakout sessions on topics ranging from financing a college education, writing an effective college admission essay, technical college opportunities and college athletics. There will also be sessions available in Spanish.

MTHS MUSIC BOOSTERS NEWS February 10th, 2014
*********************************************************************************************************
** Please read the entire newsletter from Mr. Faul and the Booster President ** On Saturday, February 8th, our MTHS Jazz 1 and Jazz 2 ensembles attended and competed in the Bellevue Community College Jazz Festival. The festival was attended by 16 high schools throughout the Puget Sound area and was a full day of music, clinics and performances. Our MTHS Jazz bands did a fantastic job and played very well and we are all so very proud of them. Congratulations to Lucy Schermer for receiving an award for Outstanding Soloist on the Flute, at the event. On Tuesday, February 11th, our Concert Band will be attending the UW Band Festival. This is another fantastic annual event that our Chamber Winds students attend and we were able to get into this at the last minute, due to another school cancelling. Please find attached a permission slip that needs to be filled out and returned ASAP. An email went out on Friday with this as well. Please be sure that all Chamber Winds students arrive on Tuesday, 2/11, dressed in concert attire and bring a lunch or lunch money for the trip. MTHS Jazz 1 has been selected to perform at the upcoming Hot Java Cool Jazz that will be happening in April at the Paramount. Please watch the newsletter and your emails for tickets that will be going on sale very soon. This is another fundraiser type event for us, as if we sell all the tickets we are allotted for the concert at the Paramount, Starbucks will give back a check to our band program for a portion of the ticket sales. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to be a part of Hot Java and equally important to try and sell all our tickets for this. We’ve been able to do it in the past, so let’s show the community and Starbucks, we can do it again!! Also, in connections with the Hot Java Cool Jazz, our Rhythm Section has been asked to perform at the local Starbucks in Mountlake Terrace. We are currently scheduled to perform on Wednesday, April 9th. Mark your calendars, come on by for a Starbucks drink and support our MTHS students. This performance at the local Starbucks is to help bring awareness to Hot Java Cool Jazz AND our fabulous band program at MTHS.
On Thursday, February 11th we will be having a meeting with Jazz 1 parents and students for the upcoming trip to Savannah for the Swing Central Competition we will be attending. The meeting is at 7:00 p.m. in the band room This is old news, but bears repeating… One event that the MTHS Music Boosters has put on the last two years is a silent auction that coincides with a band concert. The last two years have been pretty successful and we would love to see it continue, but need volunteers to assist with this. Right now, we need a committee and/or volunteers who would be able to help with getting donations and procurements for the auction. This is another great event that takes more than just a couple of volunteers to make it happen, we will need everyone’s support and help. We are currently looking at possibly holding this auction in September 2014. If you are interested in helping out in any way with the silent auction, now is the time. Whether it’s chairing a position or just helping out where you can, all hands are needed. Please contact Sherrill Leppich at
[email protected] if you are interested. February 11 – Concert band trip to UW / PEP Band in the evening February 13-‐ MTHS Rhythm Section to perform at Home Street Bank in MLT February 20 – Jazz 1 Parent/Student meeting re: Savannah 7:00pm @ MTHS February 26th – 8th Grade Parent Night @ MTHS February 27th – Jazz Night & Band Concert 7:00p.m. “Volunteering can be an exciting, growing, enjoyable experience. It is truly gratifying to serve a cause, practice one's ideals, work with people, solve problems, see benefits, and know one had a hand in them.” -‐-‐Harriet Naylor Sherrill Leppich MTHS Music Boosters President 425-‐478-‐1989
